Note: this report pertains to one of two devices used during the same procedure.Refer to manufacturer reports # 3005099803-2023-06204 for the associated device information.It was reported to boston scientific corporation that an agile esophageal partially covered stent was implanted in the middle esophagus to treat a malignant stricture during a stent placement procedure performed on (b)(6) 2023.The patient's anatomy was tortuous.Post stent placement, on an unknown date, the patient presented with dysphagia which prompted the physician to check the stent (the subject of this report).Stent ingrowth was observed and a second agile esophageal stent (the subject of mfr.Report # 3005099803-2023-06204) was placed on (b)(6) 2023.Prior to stent placement, the patient's anatomy was not dilated.Subsequently, on an unknown date, the patient presented again with dysphagia.The stent was checked and stent ingrowth was also observed.The physician noticed that the stent ingrowth occurred much earlier than with the wallflex esophageal stent.To restore patency, a wallflex esophageal stent was placed, and the procedure was completed.
