Event Description

It was reported that partial deployment occurred.Vascular access was obtained via contralateral and pedal approach.The 100% stenosed target lesion was located in the mildly tortuous and moderately calcified right superficial femoral artery (sfa).A 6x120, 130 cm eluvia drug-eluting vascular stent system was selected for use.During deployment, normal force was used to turn the thumbwheel; however, only 70% of the stent deployed.The pull grip was used in an attempt to complete deployment.There were no kinks observed on the catheter.Difficulty was encountered during device removal, but the device was removed.The procedure was completed with another eluvia stent.There were no patient complications.
