Abstract We report a case of coronary perforation after failed atherectomy with a 2 mm X‐Sizer catheter in recent totally occluded right coronary artery. The perforation was successfully managed with a polytetrafluoroethylene‐covered stent with satisfactory final angiographic results. Possible predictors of this complication with this new device are discussed. Cathet Cardiovasc Intervent 2002;56:378–382. © 2002 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
