It was reported that partial deployment and stent elongation occurred.A 7x120, 130 cm eluvia drug-eluting vascular stent system was selected for a procedure in the right distal superficial femoral artery.During deployment, the stent became stuck in the delivery system.20 millimeters of the stent were not deployed.The physician used the pull back method to attempt final deployment, but the wire was seized in the catheter.Pull back was attempted again and the stent was able to fully deploy; however, the stent was elongated by approximately 10 millimeters.An additional stent was placed to complete the procedure.The finished angiogram was acceptable for a successful case.No patient complications were reported.
