Abstract

Entrapment of nondeflated balloon is a rare complication of percutaneous coronary intervention. Sometimes it has hazardous potentials for the patient. We experienced a rare complication of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) caused by a defective balloon. We reported this experience and simple bailout technique.
