Abstract
The cerebral protection device (CPD) itself may cause complications, including locking between the CPD and other devices, that may result in catastrophic outcomes requiring surgical removal of these locked devices. We describe a case of locking between a CPD and the stent-delivering catheter during carotid artery stenting, which was safely rescued by endovascular retrieval. The mechanism underlying locking with the CPD as well as preventive actions and maneuvers for rescuing the situation are discussed.Entities:
