Event Description
|
An attempt was made to use one 3.0x34mm resolute onyx coronary drug eluting stent to treat a moderately tortuous, severely calcified lesion with 75% stenosis in the circumflex (cx) artery (cass #11-13).The device was inspected prior to use with no problems observed.Negative prep was performed with no problems observed.The device did not pass through a previously placed stent.Resistance/discomfort was not noted when the product was delivered.Excessive force was not applied during delivery.It was reported that stent deformation occurred.As the lesion was highly calcified a non-medtronic (mdt) guide extension catheter (gec) was used.A 2.5x26mm resolute onyx stent was placed with the gec in the distal lesion.Then the 3.0x34mm resolute onyx stent was aligned to the lesion to be connected proximally to the deployed stent.The stent was placed inside the gec in the coronary artery and inflation was performed while the gec was half over the stent.The stent was crimped into the coronary artery with the gec; however, when the gec was withd rawn the stent stretched greatly.A 2.0x15 non-mdt balloon was extended and pulled on the stent which had been crimped inside the gec.The stent was removed from the coronary artery and taken out of the body.With intravascular ultrasound (ivus) it was confirmed that there were no fragments of the stent remaining in the coronary artery.A 3.0x33mm non-mdt stent was then placed, and the procedure was completed.No further patient injury reported.
