Event Description
|
The angiosculpt device was used to treat a severely tortuous and severely calcified proximal rca.During advancement, resistance was noted likely due to the vessel tortuosity.The balloon was inflated and deflated 3 times under rbp with no issues.Upon removal, resistance was encountered and fluoroscopy confirmed a shaft separation at the exit port within the guide catheter.The separated portion was removed by inflating a balloon which remained inflated to pull the separated section.The procedure was completed with the suspect angiosculpt device with no patient injury reported.This adverse event and product problem is being submitted due to the additional intervention required to remove the separated portion of the device from the patient.
