It was reported that on (b)(6) 2014, the 10.0x40mmx135cm absolute pro stent was successfully deployed in the left brachial artery.During regular angiographic check-up on (b)(6) 2014, restenosis was noted in older unspecified stents that were distal to the deployed absolute pro stent.However, angiography showed that the absolute pro stent was patent, intact, and well apposed to the vessel wall.After crossing the deployed absolute pro stent with the non-abbott guide wire, the stent was noted to be stretched and possibly fractured.Reportedly, resistance was not noted during advancement of the guide wire through the stent.A 10.0x60mmx135cm absolute pro stent was deployed inside the damaged stent, before successfully completing the procedure to treat the restenosed stents.There were no reported adverse patient sequela and no reported clinically significant delay in the procedure.There was no additional information provided.
