The patient was undergoing a thrombectomy procedure in the left iliac vein and inferior vena cava (ivc) using an indigo system aspiration catheter 8 (cat8), indigo system separator 8 (sep8) and, non-penumbra sheath.During the procedure, the physician made two passes using the cat8.Next, while attempting to advance a sep8 through the cat8, the physician noticed the sep8 would not advance.Therefore, the cat8 was removed and the physician noticed the mid-shaft to be crimped.The procedure was completed using a new cat8, the same sep8 and sheath.There was no report of an adverse effect to the patient.
