It was reported that the procedure was to treat a heavily calcified, moderately tortuous right coronary artery.The 3.5x28mm xience skypoint stent delivery system (sds) was advancing to the lesion with aid of an guideliner and met resistance due to the heavily calcification.The sds was advanced; however, needed to be retracted a bit to overlap with a previously implant mid segment stent.The sds was retracted too far proximally and when attempting to advance the stent dislodged.A 3.5mm trek balloon dilatation catheter was advanced into the stent successfully and used to deploy the stent into the vessel wall.No other device was used.There was no adverse patient sequela and clinically significant delay reported.No additional information was provided.
