It was reported that the procedure was to treat a lesion located in the right renal descending artery.The 6.0 mm/19 mm omnilink elite stent delivery system (sds) was advanced and the stent deployed without any issues.The sds was removed from the patient.The vessel was reaccessed with the guiding catheter, at which time the tip of the guiding catheter came into contact with the proximal end of the deployed stent that was protruding into the aorta and bent the stent.This did not cause any flow-limiting problems; therefore, no treatment was required.No adverse patient effects or clinically significant delay in the procedure were reported.No additional information was provided.
