Manufacturer Narrative

The device history record review confirms that the device met all material, assembly and performance specifications.Visual and microscopic inspection of the device found that the stent was returned in deployed state.The stent was deformed as well.No other anomalies were noted.Functional test could not be performed due to the condition of the returned device.Information available indicated that the device was confirmed to be in good condition prior to use and there is no indication of a use error.It is likely that procedural factors contributed to the reported and observed damages limiting the performance of the stent during the clinical procedure.Therefore, an assignable cause of component failure has been assigned to this investigation.
