It was reported to boston scientific corporation that an advanix biliary stent was used during an endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ercp) procedure in the lower common bile duct performed on (b)(6) 2021.During the procedure, the guidewire was withdrawn for stent deployment.When the guide catheter was pushed, the physician had difficulty in pulling it out from the stent.The guide catheter was pulled with force; however, it was deformed and broken which resulted in the exposure of the steel wire and the stent deviation.It was reported that the broken guide catheter remained within the push catheter enabling the delivery system to be removed in one piece.The procedure was successfully completed with another advanix biliary stent.There were no patient complications reported as a result of this event.The patient's condition at the conclusion of the procedure was reported to be stable.
