Event or Problem Description
An orsiro drug-eluting stent system was selected for treatment of a severely calcified pre-dilated lesion (90 percent stenosis degree) at the bifurcation of the left coronary vessel.During the attempt to position the orsiro stent inside the lesion, the stent dislodged from the delivery balloon.After that the guidewire was used to pull the stent near the access site.Finally, the artery was opened via surgery and stent was removed.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Combination product: yes the returned product was subjected to a technical analysis and the corresponding production documentation was reviewed to establish whether a deviation from the manufacturing process could be the cause for this event.In addition, the provided angiographic material was reviewed.The technical investigation of the returned instrument revealed that the balloon is not well folded anymore and shows signs of inflation.Stent imprints are visible on the balloon surface, indicating that the stent was initially crimped centered in between the two radiopaque markers.The stent was returned separately wrapped in a thin cloth.The stent is severely deformed over its entire length.The provided angiographic material was reviewed.A stent system proximal to the target lesion visible with a deformed proximal stent end direct at the distal end of the guiding catheter.The crossing attempt and the actual complaint event is not visible.The angiographic material does therefore not provide further relevant information regarding the root cause of the complaint.Review of the production documentation confirmed that the instrument was manufactured according to specifications and passed all in-process and final inspections.As a part of final inspection every stent system undergoes visual inspection to ensure correct embedding and homogeneous crimping of the stent.Further, the stent outer diameter is verified to 100 percent and the stent retention force of a defined amount of samples is tested from every lot.Based on the conducted investigations, no manufacturing or material related root cause could be determined.
