    PHYSICIAN USED A SEMI COMPLIANT MOZEC BALLOON TO PRE-DILATE IN THE RCA. AFTER DEFLATING THE BALLOON, WHILE PULLING BACK THE BALLOON CATHETER, PHYSICIAN NOTICED IT WAS SOMEWHAT DIFFICULT TO PULL OUT, HOWEVER THE WIRE WAS MOVING. PHYSICIAN LOOKED UNDER FLUORO AND OBSERVED THAT THE WIRE WAS NOT PAST THE BALLOON CATHETER, THUS, WIRE CAME OUT BEFORE THE BALLOON BECAUSE SEMI COMPLIANT MOZEC BALLOON WAS STUCK ON THE WIRE. HAD TO PULL WIRE OUT WITH MOZEC BALLOON STUCK ON IT. HAD TO USE ANOTHER WIRE TO COMPLETE PROCEDURE.
