Event Description
|
It was reported that the procedure was performed to treat a lesion right superficial femoral artery.Pre-dilatation was performed with an unspecified 5.0x100mm balloon catheter.An unspecified absolute pro self-expanding stent system (sess) was being deployed; however, the stent jumped forward 2cm proximal to treatment area.The stent was retracted distally, but the stent fractured and there was residual stenosis after an 8mm balloon angioplasty.An unspecified 8x39mm balloon-expandable stent was placed over the fractured stent and no residual stenosis was demonstrate after placement.There was no adverse patient sequela and no clinically significant delay reported.No additional information was provided.

Manufacturer Narrative
|
The device was not returned for analysis.A review of the lot history record identified no manufacturing nonconformities issued to the reported lot that would have contributed to this event.Additionally, a review of the complaint history identified no other similar incidents from this lot.As there was no damage noted to the device during the inspection prior to use, it is possible that during deployment interaction with the anatomy and/or other devices resulted in a build-up of tension within the shaft lumens of the delivery system; thus resulting in a spring like release of the stent resulting in the reported malposition of device (stent jumped forward 2cm proximal to treatment area).Manipulation of the compromised device resulted in the reported stent break; however this cannot be confirmed.The investigation determined a conclusive cause for the reported difficulties cannot be determined.The treatment(s) appears to be related to the operational context of the procedure as reportedly an unspecified 8x39mm balloon-expandable stent was placed over the fractured stent and no residual stenosis was demonstrate after placement.There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to manufacture, design or labeling.
