Additional Manufacturer Narrative
A search for non-conformances associated with the reported part/lot number combination did not reveal any production-related issues relevant to the complaint that occurred during manufacturing of the device.The device remain implanted in the patient; however, procedure images were provided and their review is not complete.The instructions for use (ifu) identifies migration or misplacement, and stent stenosis as potential complications associated with use of the device.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The reported complaint is non-verifiable.The provided images and media were reviewed as part of this investigation.The provided images show a fred5019 device that appears undersized in the proximal genu (proximal landing zone) of ica siphon based on measurements on cta based model.The images also indicate the proximal end of the fred device might be under tension.The combination of inherent tension and inadequate wall apposition in proximal vessel segment might have caused the proximal segment of fred to spring forward/retract.The physical device was not available for this investigation.Without the return and physical evaluation of the device, the investigation is unable to determine if a condition existed that would have caused or contributed to the reported event.
