Key Words Coronary calcification; Coronary stent balloon shaft fracture; Coronary endarterectomy; Intravascular lithotripsy; Coronary artery bypass grafting; Case report
Core Tip This case report describes a patient who sequentially experienced three rare complications—balloon shaft fracture requiring surgical endarterectomy, early native vessel occlusion after coronary artery bypass grafting, and intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) balloon rupture—with complete imaging documentation. The case highlights the importance of intravascular ultrasound -guided calcium modification before stenting and demonstrates that IVL balloon rupture can be managed safely with prompt retrieval and backup balloon dilatation.
