Event Description
|
It was reported that the procedure was performed to treat a bifurcated lesion at the proximal-mid left anterior descending (lad) and the proximal left circumflex (lcx) coronary arteries with heavy calcification, mild tortuosity and 80% stenosis.The 2.75x38mm xience pro a stent was implanted in the proximal-mid lad.A 2.75x23 mm xience pro a stent delivery system (sds) was advanced to the ostium of the lcx, but was unable to cross the previously implanted xience pro a stent.During removal of the 2.75x23 mm xience pro a sds, the stent became entrapped by the previously implanted stent at the proximal lad.Both stents were then retrieved into the guiding catheter without any remnants.It was noted that the deployed stent was elongated.A new 3.0x28mm xience pro a stent was successfully implanted at the proximal lad and a new 2.75x23mm xience pro a stent was implanted at the lcx.There were no adverse patient effects and no clinically significant delay in the procedure.No additional information was provided.
