An ultra-low-profile 0.85 mm Nano Hydro balloon to treat wire-crossable balloon-uncrossable lesions: A useful tool in CTO armamentarium

Balloon uncrossable lesions are commonly encountered during chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). A sequential strategy and planning are required to tackle such lesions. We present a case series of severely calcified, device uncrossable lesions where the traditional strategies failed and an ultra-low-profile (0.85 mm) balloon was crucial to successful PCI. To our best knowledge, this is the first case series describing the use of this balloon in real world.
