We describe 2 cases of complex coronary lesions in which the conventional 0.014‐inch balloon catheters failed to cross a chronic subtotal occlusion and also failed to adequately predilate a calcified coronary lesion. The novel use of a 0.010‐inch guidewire and compatible balloon catheters in both cases allowed us to perform the percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) successfully, and we highlight the usefulness of these new devices as important adjunctive tools in PCI.
