Event Description

It was reported that the stent was not deployed in the targeted position.The severely stenosed target lesion was located in the severely calcified and severely tortuous right iliac artery.A 6x150x130 innova self expanding stent was selected for the procedure.An ipsilateral approach was used to access the lesion.During the procedure, the guidewire crossed the occlusion in the right iliac artery and a balloon was used to pre-dilate.After the full stent was released from the system, the physician noticed that the stent moved position.The physician surgically cut the artery and removed half of the stent.The other half of the stent remained in the patient.There were no additional patient complications reported.The patient was stable post surgery.
