Manufacturer Narrative

The stent, pusher, and microcatheter were returned for evaluation.Upon initial inspection, the stent was positioned outside of its delivery system and was too damaged for further analysis.The cause of the event cannot be confirmed, but it is alleged to be related to tortuous anatomy.No notable conditions were identified on the other returned components that would have caused or contributed to the reported complaint.
