Event or Problem Description
It was reported that the procedure was to treat a 90% stenosed, moderately calcified and moderately tortuous vessel in the superficial femoral artery (sfa).The vessel diameter was 4.5mm and atherectomy was not used in the procedure.Pre-dilatation was performed using a 5mmx120mm balloon with a pressure of 8 atmospheres (atms) for 5min.The 4.5x120mm supera self-expanding stent system (sess) was attempted to be released but could not be separated from the delivery sheath.The stent and the delivery sheath were withdrawn together from the anatomy under fluoroscopy.Another supera sess was used to complete the procedure.There was no adverse patient effect and there was no reported clinically significant delay in the procedure.No additional information was provided.
Additional 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 other incidents from this lot.It is possible that interaction with the 90% stenosed, moderately calcified and moderately tortuous anatomy resulted in the ratchet being unable to properly engage and release the stent from the delivery system thus resulting in the reported activation failure/ deployment failure; however this cannot be confirmed.The investigation determined a conclusive cause for the reported difficulties cannot be determined.There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to manufacture, design or labeling.
