Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported that the procedure was to treat a 98% stenosed lesion in the left superficial femoral artery (sfa) with heavy calcification and moderate tortuosity.A 5.00 x 60mm armada balloon dilatation catheter (bdc) was advanced to the target lesion on a 0.035 unspecified guidewire; however, during the second inflation the balloon ruptured at 8 atmospheres after 2 minutes due to heavy calcification in the lesion.The bdc was removed from the patient and a 6.00 x 80mm absolute stent was implanted.Then post-dilatation was performed with a 5.00 x 40mm armada balloon to complete the procedure.There was no adverse patient effect and no clinically significant delay in the procedure.No additional information regarding this issue was provided.
