During the procedure, the catheter became entrapped in a posterior branch of the eyelet vein. Due to difficult device removal, the catheter was left in the patient for the remainder of the procedure. At the end of the case, the device was still stuck so the deflection mechanism was cut off to allow a sheath to advance over the catheter shaft. A dose of verapamil was administered and the catheter was removed successfully. Fluoroscopy was used with contrast to observe the vein but the vein was functioning properly and no damage was noted. The physician did not believe the event was due to a performance issue with the catheter.
