It was reported that the procedure was performed on (b)(6) 2023, to treat a moderately calcified, mildly tortuous, 60% stenosed lesion in the left common iliac artery.A 7.0mmx59mmx135cm omni elite balloon-expandable stent (bes) was implanted without issue.On (b)(6) 2023, the patient returned for a planned procedure to fix the right sfa.Access was gained from the left side and a non-abbott guide wire was then advanced, but inadvertently and unknowingly went through the stent strut of the previously implanted omni elite stent.Then, a 6f non-abbott sheath was advanced over the guide wire, however, the tip of the sheath became caught on the implanted omni elite stent strut and elongated the implanted stent a large distance in the vessel, however the stent remained implanted.Access was then gained from the right common femoral side, and they went in with a snare device to remove the elongated, implanted stent.When pulling the stent out of the vessel and into a non-abbott sheath for removal from the anatomy, a dissection occurred due to an interaction with the omni elite stent and the vessel wall.Once the dissection was noticed, a non-abbott covered stent was implanted to treat the dissection and re-cover the lesion that the omni elite was removed from.The patient was in stable condition at the end of the procedure.There was no adverse patient sequela and no reported clinically significant delay in the procedure or therapy.No additional information was provided.
