Event Description
|
It was reported that the stent was partially deployed, and it was impossible to pull the device alone due to interference with the wire.After pulling the entire system the stent was deployed, however it had stretched.A 6mm x 120mm, 130cm eluvia drug-eluting vascular stent system was selected for use in a stenting procedure in the superficial femoral artery with moderate tortuosity as treatment for lower extremity peripheral arterial disease.Pre-dilatation was performed appropriately, and a 0.014" guidewire was placed using contralateral approach.During deployment of the stent, there was resistance felt when rotating the thumbwheel and the stent became partially deployed (even after turning the thumbwheel fully).It was attempted to remove the eluvia system, however, it was impossible to only remove the eluvia system due to interference between the wire and eluvia system.The entire system was pulled together and the stent became fully deployed, however, it was noted that it had stretched from about 12cm to 14cm.No patient complications were reported.
