Event Description

"unable to deploy the stent graft: after the inner sheath was advanced out of the outer sheath at controller position "1", the position of the relaypro was finalized.When the deployment grip was rotated counterclockwise to pull down the inner sheath at controller position "2", the inner sheath could not be pulled down and the stent graft was not deployed.The inner sheath appeared to still be engaged in the delivery system tip, and the tip exhibited a motion as if it was bending into a chevron shape.After re-confirming that the controller position was "2", attempts were made to pull down the inner sheath by moving the entire delivery system centrally and peripherally, and by sliding the deployment grip forward, but the inner sheath could not be pulled down.After that, the deployment grip was rotated again to deploy the stent graft, and the inner sheath could be released allowing the stent graft to be deployed.Although there were deployment difficulties, the stent graft was successfully implanted in the intended position, and the procedure was completed as usual with no additional treatment.Operation type: tevar; blood loss: amount is small if any.Image available.Pre-case plan available.No additional information available (b)(4).Patient outcome: "no health damage to the patient.".
