Event Description
|
One resolute onyx coronary drug eluting stent was attempted to be used to treat a mildly tortuous, moderately calcified lesion with 90% stenosis in the proximal obtuse marginal (om).It was stated that it was a tight lesion with recoil.The device was inspected prior to use with no issues noted.Negative prep was performed with no issues noted.The lesion was pre-dilated multiple times.The device did not pass through a previously deployed stent.Resistance was encountered when advancing the device.It was reported that the stent could not reach the correct position due to lesion recoil and stent dislodgement occurred during removal of the device.An attempt was made to retrieve the stent using a snare but was unsuccessful.The dislodged stent was not removed from the patient.Attempts were also made to re-engage the stent with a smaller balloon and to wrap wires distal to the stent to pull the system out but these were also unsuccessful.It was stated that after multiple attempts to remove the stent a dissection was noted in the left main (lm).During balloon pump insertion the patient suffered multiple arrhythmias requiring defibrillation.The lm was re-engaged.The circumflex (cx) was noted to be completely occluded with no flow and it was suspected to be the cause of the arrhythmias.The lm and left anterior descending (lad) were successfully stented.The patient stabilized and was sent to the operating room.
