Abstract
Complications related to hardware malfunction during balloon mitral valvuloplasty (BMV) are rarely met in catheterization laboratory. However, the consequences can be grave including death. We report an extremely rare complication of fracture of BMV coiled tip guidewire, which was successfully retrieved percutaneously with a relatively simple technique. Finally the procedure was completed without any complication.Entities:
