Özet
In this report, a novel management to the problem of a fractured balloon catheter which is a very rarely seen complication and has not yet been reported in the nature as in our case during percutaneous transluminal coronary interventions is presented. We inserted a second balloon catheter to the space between the previous fractured balloon and the wall of right coronary artery, and then by inflating the second balloon catheter at low pressure, the guide-wire of fractured balloon catheter and the second sound balloon catheter gently and cautiously removed together into the guiding catheter. Subsequently, the whole system was taken out of the body without complication. © 2006 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
