The device was returned for analysis on 6/13/2016.Conclusion: as reported by a healthcare professional, during treatment of the middle cerebral artery, an enterprise stent (enf452212/10480746) became stuck in the prowler select plus (606s255fx/ 17289402) during advancement of the stent through the microcatheter.A continuous flush had been maintained through the microcatheter, and the devices appeared normal prior to use.Neither device appeared damaged after removal from the patient.The devices had been used and prepped as per the instructions for use (ifu).The stent did not prematurely deploy during the procedure and had become stuck in the main shaft of the microcatheter.The devices were removed without difficulty and did not result in patient injury or a clinically significant delay in the procedure.A non-sterile enterprise device was received inside of a plastic bag.The deliver wire was received coiled, and no damages were noted.The introducer tube was not received for evaluation.The stent was received deployed, and no damages were noted on it.The received stent was inspected under microscope and no damages were noted.The functional analysis could not be performed since the stent was not received and it is necessary that the stent is still inside of the introducer tube to perform the functional analysis.Lake region medical reviewed the device history records relative to the manufacturing, inspecting and packaging of the above mentioned lot.The device history record review also included a review of the certificate of conformance received from specialty coatings systems and nitinol devices and components, along with lake region medical¿s internal receiving inspection records for the stents issued to the complaint lot.The history records indicate this product was final inspection tested at lake region medical and was determined to be acceptable.The resistance between the enterprise and prowler select plus microcatheter could not be confirmed for the enterprise since the device could not be evaluated with the stent deployed.The prowler select plus being impeded was not confirmed; however resistance was confirmed.The resistance could not be conclusively determined; however, appears to be due to the kink and compressed sections found on the device.Neither the product analysis nor the dhr review suggests that the failure could be related to the manufacturing process; therefore, no corrective action will be taken at this time.This is 1 of 2 mdrs being submitted for this event, with associated report numbers of 1226348-2016-00058 and 1058196-2016-00071.
