Event Description
|
It was reported that shaft break occurred.The 90% stenosed target lesion was located in the severely tortuous and severely calcified internal carotid artery.After a non-boston scientific (bsc) guidewire crossed the lesion and a non-bsc guide catheter was delivered to the common carotid artery, a 10.0-31 carotid wallstent was advanced to treat the lesion.Stent deployment in the lesion was tried, however, a slight resistance was felt but when about half was able to deployed somehow, more resistance was felt.When it was tried to deploy further, the t-connection part was slightly pulled but it could not be deployed.The stent was able to retract slightly, the system was removed and eventually, the device was retrieved.Subsequently, a 10-24 carotid wallstent was selected for use, and was delivered the same way.During deployment, the same resistance was still felt, and when about one-third was deployed, more resistance was felt but it was able to deploy as it was this time which completed the procedure.After the procedure, no damage was found on the delivery system.However, it was noticed that the proximal shaft of 10.0-31 carotid wallstent got stretched and the t-connection part could not be pulled out.About 15cm from the tip was about to separate.The 15cm part from the tip of the stent device was separated, but there was a report from the physician that when it was touched outside the patient, it got separated and remained inside the body.No further patient complications were reported.

Manufacturer Narrative

Device evaluated by manufacturer: carotid wallstent monorail 10.0-31 was received for analysis.The device was received in two sections due to a complete detachment of the shaft.The device was received with the stent partially deployed on the delivery system.The exposed stent wires were noted to be damaged.The investigator was unable to deploy the stent due to a complete detachment of the shaft.A visual and tactile inspection identified two complete detachments of the outer shaft.The first detachment was located at the monorail port of the device.The second detachment was located approximately 27mm distal of the main t-valve.The shaft of the device was also found to have severe accordion damage beginning at the second shaft detachment and extending for approximately 20mm distally.This type of damage is consistent with excessive force being applied to the device.A visual and tactile examination identified no issues with the tip of the device.
