"deployment of graft was completed.Inner sheath and nose cone were reunited.The device controller was placed in position 2 when the delivery system was safely in the descending aorta.Difficulty removing the device from the access/per close site was experienced.When we looked at the controller- it was floating and would not seat into position 2 anymore.The tip of the device was just not coming out easily and was going to require force to pull it out.Surgeon decided to do a cut down.At that time it was noticed that the per close was placed at the level of the internal artery.The iliac artery was very tortuous and the surgeon had to repair the high stick.The surgeon believes the placement of the per close at the level of the internal combined with the tortuosity of the vessel were causing the device removal issue." patient outcome: "after patient received a mini groin cut-down, the device came out easily.The per close sutures were removed and groin was repaired.Patient went to holding and did well.".
