Successful Retrieval of an Entrapped Rotablator Burr by Using a Guideliner Guiding Catheter and a Snare.

Although burr entrapment is a rare complication of rotablation, it is extremely difficult to retrieve a stuck entrapped burr without surgical intervention. There are several techniques typically employed to retrieve an entrapped burr, using bailout endovascular approaches. Herein we have presented a new retrieval method involving a Guideliner child-in-mother catheter combined with a snare, which was used to successfully rescue a stuck rotablator burr.
