Abstract: We describe our solution to the unusual situation of an inflated, large coronary stent (3.5 mm diameter) which became dislodged from the ostium of the right coronary artery after deployment during a transradial procedure. We discussed tips for retrieval from the radial artery while preserving the access for completion of the procedure.<br /> (Copyright © 2014 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.)
