Event Description

According to the available information, kinked tubing.The device was revised.The physician reported that the patient had the device in for at least 13 years and noticed over the last year that he had difficulty with inflation and deflation.On exam, was found that the patient most likely had a kink in the tubing which was restricting fluid transfer from the pump to the reservoir.Upon surgical exploration, the kink was actually at the point of the straight connector going to the reservoir.This was simply excised and reconnected with right angle connector without difficulty.Patient is having no complaints post-operatively and it is functioning normally.
