Manufacturer Narrative

The device was not returned for evaluation.A review of the lot history record identified no manufacturing nonconformities issued to the reported lot that would have contributed to this event.Additionally, a review of the complaint history identified no other complaints.Based on the information provided, a definitive cause for the tip detachment could not be determined.It may be possible that the tip was not retracted and locked in place prior to removal causing interaction with the stent or anatomy resulting in separation; however, this could not be confirmed.The additional treatment to snare the detached tip was related to case circumstances.There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to the design, manufacture, or labeling of the device.

Event Description

It was reported that this was a percutaneous interventional procedure to treat the distal superficial femoral artery (sfa).The 4.5x100 mm supera stent was implanted and the delivery system was removed from the patient without incident.When a post-dilatation balloon was unable to advance down a guide wire, a fluoroscopy image showed that the tip of the supera delivery system had detached and was in the distal sfa.The separated tip was removed with a snare.There were no adverse patient effects and no clinically significant delay in the procedure.There was no additional information provided.
