Event Description
|
It was reported that the 6.0x60 mm supera stent was being deployed in the mid superficial femoral artery (sfa) when the doctor thought it was taking a long time to deploy the stent.At one point, the doctor thought the stent was fully deployed so he retracted the delivery system and noticed that there was still stent remaining to be deployed.This stretched the stent out a little bit, within 10% of its labeled length.After the stent was fully deployed, the doctor thought the deployed length was 150 mm instead of the labeled 60 mm.The extra stent length was deployed in the sfa that the doctor did not intend to treat.No additional information was provided.
