The contact at the hospital reported that when the physician advanced the enterprise stent (enf452212/10424435) through the prowler select plus microcatheter (606s255fx/lot unknown), there was resistance so he pulled it out again.After that it deployed prematurely.Another stent (details unknown) went through the catheter without difficulty.Nothing unusual was noted about the system prior to use.An adequate continuous flush was maintained through the catheter.There was no difficulty during introduction of the catheter over the guidewire prior to the attempted use of the device.There was no difficulty tracking the catheter to the target site prior to introduction of the device.There were no kinks noted on the catheter before or after the difficulty.The vessel was not excessively tortuous or with acute bends.At the time of the initial contact, the product was not available to be returned.There was no significant delay in the procedure as a result of the issue.
