<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>A patient is presented with localized perforation of the left anterior descending artery secondary to angioplasty balloon rupture. Despite a remarkable angiographic picture of coronary tear and dye extravasation into the surrounding pericardial tissue, the patient remained hemodynamically stable, and was medically treated.
