Event Description
|
It was reported that during the procedure, when a previously placed coil was half inserted into the aneurysm, deployment of the subject stent was attempted.However, when withdrawing the stent delivery wire, the stent distal bumper got stuck at distal aspect of subject stent.The physician attempted to adjust the stent but this caused it to migrate a lot inside the patient anatomy and loose targeted position.The stent delivery wire was withdrawn causing an associated catheter to migrate out of the aneurysm and coil to be stretched and fractured.The physician tried to adjust the stent delivery wire and micro catheter but was unable and finally took the stent delivery wire out and the procedure was stopped.Based on additional information received, it was reported that the patient developed muscle weakness and was under temporary medication.It was also reported that the subject stent was still inside the patient's body.The procedure was not completed successfully and no further information is currently available.

H4 manufacturing date ¿ added d4 expiration date - added the device was not returned therefore, visual and functional testing as well as physical analysis cannot be performed.The reported complaint could not be confirmed, and it could not be definitively determined if the device failed to meet specifications as the product was unable to be analyzed as per nc 2325700.Based on the results of the dhr review, there is no indication that the device, labeling or packaging failed to meet its specifications when released.As per the available information, the device was confirmed to be in good condition during preparation/prior to use on the patient and it was prepared as per the dfu.The patient¿s anatomy was moderately tortuous.The event description states 'when withdrawing the stent delivery wire, the stent distal bumper was stuck at distal of the stent and couldn't be taken out.During the adjusting, the stent migrated a lot and was apart from the aneurysm neck completely.The microcatheter was migrated out of aneurysm during withdrawing the stent delivery wire and the coil which was half inserted was stuck on the stent and couldn't be filled or withdrawn.After several tries the coil stretched and fractured in the vessel'.It is probable that the deployment of the subject stent and subsequent attempt to remove the sdw and coil caused the stent to dislodge and migrate.An assignable cause of procedural factors will be assigned to the reported events as the issue is associated with a product that meets design and manufacture specifications and was used in according with the dfu but due to procedural and/or anatomical factors during use, the product performance was limited.
