A 57‐year‐old patient on hemodialysis underwent JETSTREAM Atherectomy for a heavily calcified superficial femoral artery lesion. Despite successful debulking and drug‐coated balloon angioplasty, distal embolization occurred, leading to irreversible toe ischemia and subsequent amputation. Micro‐computed tomography and histology of the amputated specimen revealed embolized nodular calcification and cholesterol crystals, confirming plaque‐derived debris as the cause. This is the first report to demonstrate such emboli using both modalities. The case underscores the limitations of built‐in aspiration and highlights the importance of careful patient selection, procedural planning, and consideration of embolic protection in complex femoropopliteal interventions. 10.1002/ccd.70068 http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/termsAndConditions#vor |
