A resolute integrity stent was attempted to be used to treat a lesion in a patient's 2nd obtuse marginal artery with no tortuosity, no calcification and 80% lesion stenosis.No abnormalities were reported in relation to the anatomy.No damage noted to packaging.No issues noted when removing the device from the hoop/tray.The device was not inspected.Negative prep was performed with no issues.The lesion was pre-dilated.Resistance was encountered when advancing the device.No excessive force was used during delivery.It was reported that stent deformation in vivo during positioning occurred.The physician completed the procedure with a non-medtronic device.It was reported that the event was due to the use of the device in difficult lesion morphology/anatomy.In addition, it was described as a difficult case, because of difficult lesion morphology of the patient.No patient injury reported.
