Event Description
|
It was reported that deployment difficulties were encountered.The target lesion was almost 250mm long and located in the superficial femoral artery (sfa).An eluvia 6x150x130cm was advanced via a crossover approach and the stent was being deployed via the thumbwheel, after 120mm was deployed the remainder of the stent was attempted to be deployed via the pull grip.The pull grip did not function and the physician then "destroyed" the handle and pulled the catheter from within the handle.The eluvia deployed and additional stenting was required to treat the lesion.No patient complications were reported.
