Block e1: initial reporter address 1: (b)(6) block h6: medical device problem code a0406 captures the reportable event of pancreatic stent kinked.Block h10: the returned advanix pancreatic stent was analyzed, and a visual evaluation noted that the stent was not kinked, instead it was damaged on the pigtail.No other issues with the device were noted.The reported event was confirmed.According to product analysis, it is possible that this damage on the stent may have been caused by the manipulation applied during the preparation of the stent within the pusher, as consequence of this damage the stent wouldn't be able to be set-up with the pusher.Therefore, adverse event related to procedure is selected as the most probable root cause for the complaint.A review of the manufacturing documentation for this device revealed that no anomalies or deviations related to the event occurred during manufacturing.
