It was reported that a partial deployment occurred.The 50% stenosed target lesion was located in the straight segment of the mid superficial femoral artery (sfa).The artery was highly calcified distal to the target lesion.A 6x150, 130 cm eluvia drug-eluting vascular stent system was selected for use.A jetstream device was used for vessel preparation and the lesion was predilated with a 4mm balloon.A 150 stent was placed.During the procedure, 80% of the second 6x150, 130 cm eluvia stent was deployed using elevated force when turning the thumbwheel.The physician pulled on the pull grip prior to the white arrow appearing.The distal end of the stent was anchored, and then the entire system was pulled back to complete the deployment.A smaller stent was placed proximal to the two 150 stents.There were no patient complications, and the procedure outcome was good.
