Event Description
|
It was reported that the stent system became stuck on the wire during removal.The 75% stenosed target lesion was located in the severely calcified and moderately tortuous superficial femoral artery (sfa).The lesion was stenosed again six months after treatment with drug coated balloon (dcb).A 6x120x130 eluvia self expanding drug eluting stent and 0.035 non-bsc guidewire were selected for a lower extremity percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (pta) procedure in sfa.An ipsilateral approach was used to access the lesion.When trying to remove the system after stent was fully deployed, the user encountered difficulty with the wire and the system could not be removed.The system and wire had to be removed simultaneously from the patient body.Outside of the body, the physician tried to remove the system from the wire, but it could not be removed without applying considerable force, winding and pulling the wire with one hand.The wire moved when pushing it from the back of the system, but it could not be removed when trying to pull it.Then, it was forcibly pulled, and the wire was removed.It was noted that the eluvia system was kinked at the shaft, it occurred during retrieval.The procedure was successfully completed with this device.No patient complications were reported and the patient status post procedure was good.
