It was reported that stent dislodgement occurred.The target lesion was located in the mid left circumflex (lcx) artery.A 2.50 x 12mm synergy xd drug-eluting stent was advanced for treatment.However, it was noted that the stent was stripped off of the balloon prior to deployment.The stent was floating in the mid lcx and unsuccessful attempts were made to recross the stent with a wire, so deployment of the stent was not possible.Also, an unsuccessful attempt was made to crush the stent against the arterial wall.The device remained inside the patient and the procedure ended.No further patient complications were reported.
