H10: manufacturing review: the lot history record of this lot was reviewed with special attention to the manufacturing and inspection of this product, and the product was found to have met the specification prior to shipment.Investigation summary: the sample was returned to the manufacturer for evaluation.The condition of the returned delivery system confirmed an expansion issue.The stent brake of the inner catheter which had been under the stent during deployment was found with heavy imprints and superficial damage which was considered an indication that the stent adhered to the stent brake during deployment.In addition, images were provided demonstrating the placed stent with elongation proximal of the position where the stent brake had been positioned (patient view) during deployment which may indicate that the elongation was caused in the section of the silicone brake.In summary, the investigation is confirmed for expansion issue, and elongation as subsequent event.The images could not confirm strut fracture and difficult removal.Based upon the available information a definitive root cause could not be determined.Labeling review: a review of the relevant instruction for use for this product was conducted.The instruction for use was found to address potential complications and adverse events such as incorrect positioning of the stent requiring further stenting or surgery, intimal injury, and malposition.H11: section a through f ¿ the information provide by bd represents all the known information at this time.Despite good faith efforts to obtain additional information, the complainant/reporter was unable or unwilling to provide any further patient, product, or procedural details to bd.
