Stent was implanted by eus-hgs and was inadequately expanded according to procedure description reported.It was also reported that cover, inner and outer mesh were pushed.It was confirmed for stent not to be fully expanded, it is, however, hard to identify whether inner and outer mesh were separated out based on medical picture provided.It is confirmed from the device history record that suspected device had been manufactured with no significant issue and passed all the inspections.Dct2012bp implanted for procedure is called comvi that is manufactured by overlapping 2pcs of stents, which are outer mesh without cover and inner mesh with cover.Outer mesh can be early expanded prior to inner mesh expansion affected by patient lesion condition during deployment.In addition, ingrowth can occur on the outer mesh without cover.There is a likelihood of inadequate expansion of inner mesh with cover affected by ingrowth of tissue if there was severe ingrowth.But, it is hard to find out exact root cause for this complaint since the suspected device was not returned and it is difficult to reconstruct the situation at the time of procedure with limited information.We will continuously monitor whether similar or same complaint occurs.The suspected device is not registered to u.S fda and it has not been shipped into the u.S.
