Additional information received; it was reported the patient has expired.The cause of death has not been reported.Film evaluation summary: the reported stent graft occlusion event was confirmed on the films provided.Although the cause of the event cannot be fully determined, it is likely that the patient¿s narrow and calcified anatomy were a contributory factor in the occlusion of the stent graft.Instructions for use for the endurant ii stent graft advise that the aortic section of the bifurcated stent graft should be oversized 10-20% in relation to the actual measured inner vessel diameter.This measurement should take into account thrombus and calcification present within the vessel, that has the capacity to decrease the inner vessel diameter and potentially lead to occlusion.Angiogram¿s at implant were not available for review; the blood flow dynamics could not be assessed from the ct¿s provided.Other possible contributors to vessel occlusion include an unknown coagulopathy that is now presenting or a previous history of pad.Analysis of the returned ct did not reveal any out of specification stent graft integrity issues.Medtronic is submitting this report to comply with fda reporting regulations under 21 cfr parts 4 and 803.This report is based upon information obtained by medtronic, which the company may not have been able to fully investigate or verify prior to the date the report was required by the fda.Medtronic has made reasonable efforts to obtain more complete information and has provided as much relevant information as is available to the company as of the submission date of this report.This report does not constitute an admission or a conclusion by fda, medtronic, or its employees that the device, medtronic, or its employee caused or contributed to the event described in the report.In particular, this report does not constitute an admission by anyone that the product described in this report has any ¿defects¿ or has ¿malfunctioned¿.These words are included in the fda 3500a form and are fixed items for selection created by the fda to categorize the type of event solely for the purpose of regulatory reporting.Medtronic objects to the use of these words and others like them because of the lack of definition and the connotations implied by these terms.This statement should be included with any information or report disclosed to the public under the freedom of information act.Any required fields that are unpopulated are blank because the information is currently unknown or unavailable.A good faith effort will be made to obtain the applicable information relevant to the report.If information is provided in the future, a supplemental report will be issued.
