It was reported that the physician intended to use an everflex entrust to treat a 40mm calcified cto (chronic total occlusion - 100%) in the patient¿s distal right common iliac artery.The vessel diameter was reported to be 7mm.A non-medtronic 6f sheath and a non-medtronic 0.035 wire were used.The lesion was reported to be of moderate tortuosity and calcification.The ifu was followed and the device was prepped without issue.The thumbscrew/lock-pin was checked for securement prior to procedure.Embolic protection was not used.Pre-dilation was carried out using an 8mm pre-dilation device.It was reported that deployment issues occurred when the red safety was pulled prior to deployment - it became caught on a wire and the stent deployed on its own.The stent was reported to have deployed in the correct area.
