It was reported that the procedure was to treat the heavily calcified distal right iliac artery.After crossing with an unspecified wire the 8.0x59mm, the omnilink elite stent delivery system failed to fully cross lesion due to resistance with anatomy; therefore, it was attempted to pull back the delivery system into sheath.Resistance was met and the stent began to come off the balloon.The omnilink elite was advanced back into the iliac artery and deployed noting that it was also, partially deployed in the proximal right iliac artery.A smaller unspecified balloon was advanced into the portion of the stent that was deployed and ballooned enough to use another omnilink stent to fully deploy the first stent, while also stenting the rest of the lesion.There was no adverse patient sequela an no clinically significant delay reported.No additional information was provided.
