It was reported that the procedure was to treat the heavily tortuous, 90% stenosed, mildly calcified mid left anterior descending (lad) coronary artery.The 2.75x48 mm xience xpedition stent was advanced to the lesion with resistance noted with the anatomy and upon inflation the stent dislodged but did not deploy and was hanging in the lumen of the target lesion.Another 2.75x48 mm xience xpedition stent was used to be placed over the dislodged stent.There were no adverse patient sequela.No additional information was provided.

Manufacturer Narrative
|
The device was not returned for analysis.A review of the lot history record identified no manufacturing nonconformities issued to the reported lot that would have contributed to this event.Additionally, a review of the complaint history identified no similar incidents from this lot.The investigation determined the reported difficulties appear to be related to circumstances of the procedure as it is likely the device interacted with the heavily tortuous, 90% stenosed and mildly calcified artery causing the reported difficulty to advance and subsequent dislodgement with the patient effect of device embedded and unexpected medical intervention.There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to manufacture, design or labeling.
