    IT WAS REPORTED THAT BALLOON RUPTURE AND TIP DETACHMENT OCCURRED. THE TARGET LESION WAS LOCATED IN THE CEPHALIC ARCH. A 12-4/5.8/120MM XXL BALLOON CATHETER WAS ADVANCED FOR DILATION. HOWEVER, ON SECOND INFLATION AT 7 ATMOSPHERES, THE BALLOON RUPTURED. THE DEVICE WAS PULLED AND THE DISTAL TIP OF THE BALLOON SHEARED OFF. THE PHYSICIAN MADE A FEW ATTEMPTS TO LOCATE THE BALLOON FRAGMENT, BUT NO FILLING DEFECTS WERE SEEN AND THE BALLOON FRAGMENT WAS NOT FOUND. NO PATIENT COMPLICATIONS WERE REPORTED AND THE PATIENT WAS DISCHARGED IN GOOD CONDITION.
