Event Description

It was reported that the xact stent was successfully implanted in the internal carotid artery and the filter was successfully used and removed.There was a lesion distal to the stent that the physician decided not to treat as it was more narrow and the flow was fine.Later, while the patient was eating lunch, they began to experience symptoms of a trans-ischemic attack (tia) with weakness on the right side.A ct scan was performed but no other treatment was performed and the symptoms were improving.The patient was moved to the intensive care unit.The symptoms totally resolved within 24 hours.The physician noted that it was likely not due to the stent.No additional information was provided.
