The customer reports following an esophagogastroduodenoscopy (egd) with stent removal procedure (for the indication of fractured duodenal stent) using a hanarostent duo uncovered 22 dm 12cm stent, the patient went to the emergency room due to bleeding.A computerized tomography (ct) was completed, and it showed that the stent had fractured and was possibly the cause of the bleeding.Anatomical challenges that could have contributed to the device breaking: difficult angle of anatomical position where stent was deployed.Interventions required as a result of this event include ct, x-ray, admit to hospital, egd, removal of broken stent in stomach.The outcome/result of the follow-up egd performed the next day: removed approximately 3cm of the proximal stent, remainder of stent left in patient.The patient's current condition is reported as: patient left hospital and placed on hospice.
