It was reported that the stent failed to fully expand, and the radial force was insufficient to treat the target lesion.An additional stent was required to adequately treat the target lesion.An eluvia drug-eluting vascular stent system 6x120, 130cm was selected for use in the superficial femoral artery (sfa).The target lesion was 100% stenosed with severe calcification and tortuosity.The target lesion was approached contralaterally using a non-boston scientific guidewire and an unknown guide sheath.When the eluvia delivery system passed through the common iliac bifurcation, there was difficulty advancing.Once at the target lesion, the eluvia stent was deployed without difficulty.Once the stent was deployed, the physician determined that the stent failed to expand fully, and that the radial force was insufficient to treat the target lesion.An additional eluvia stent was required to adequately treat the target lesion.The procedure was completed, and there were no reported adverse consequences for the patient.
