She refused surgery and opted for PBP. During the procedure, the balloon ruptured and was trapped within the pericardium. The entrapped balloon was secured by snaring onto the proximal end of the balloon. The distal end of the balloon remained trapped across the pericardium as it did not deflate completely after rupturing. Therefore, a needle was inserted under fluoroscopic guidance to decompress the balloon, which enabled its successful removal percutaneously.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Discussion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This is the first reported case of balloon rupture and entrapment during PBP that was successfully removed percutaneously.
