It was reported that the procedure was performed to treat a lesion in the iliac artery.A 6fr sheath was placed and a 9x39mm omnilink elite balloon expandable stent (bes) was being advanced when met resistance with the introducer sheath.The bes was attempted to be deploy; however, after multiple attempts to pushed out the stent did not come out of the sheath and completely failed to deploy.During removal, the bes met resistance with the introducer sheath and a dissection at the puncture site was noted; therefore, a cut down was performed and the device was removed as a single unit.There was a delay in the procedure; however, there were no adverse patient sequela.

Manufacturer Narrative
|
The device was not returned for analysis.A review of the lot history record identified no manufacturing nonconformities issued to the reported lot that would have contributed to this event.Additionally, a review of the complaint history identified no other incidents.The reported patient effects of dissection and surgical intervention are listed in the omnilink elite® vascular balloon-expandable stent system, electronic instructions for use as known patient effects of coronary stenting procedures.The investigation was unable to determine a conclusive cause for the reported difficult to advance and difficult to remove; however, the subsequent surgical intervention appears to be related to circumstances of the procedure.A conclusive cause for the reported patient effect of vascular dissection, and the relationship to the product, if any, cannot be determined.There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to manufacture, design, or labeling.D9, h3: device returning updated from yes to no.H6: medical device problem code 3270 removed.
