Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
Manufacturer ref# (b)(4).Summary of investigational findings: a 72-year-old female patient with a thoracoabdominal aneurysm was treated with a zdeg-pt-32-202-pf-us (complaint device), which was modified prior to implantation and the stent graft was resheated.4 fenestrations for the celiac artery, sma (superior mesenteric artery), left and right renal artery have been done.The physicians deployed the stent graft, were able to get out the fenestrations to place stents out the fenestrations.A small dissection in the celiac artery has occurred but the physicians were able to stent and fix it.Then another dissection in the sma occurred.This time the physicians were not able to fix it right away.A bypass has been performed.A longer hospital stay has been expected.No imaging was provided for investigation.Review of the device history record gave no indication of the device being produced out of specification.According to the ifu, zdeg is indicated for the endovascular treatment of patients with type b aortic dissection.Consequently, use of zdeg device for treatment of a thoracoabdominal aneurysm is outside of intended use.Additionally, device modification is not supported by the instructions for use or clinical testing of the device.Based on the provided information it has not been possible to establish a conclusive cause of the reported event as the stent graft was modified before use.Cook medical will continue to monitor for similar events.This report is required by the fda under 21 cfr part 803.This report is based on unconfirmed information submitted by others.Neither the submission of this report nor any statement made in it is intended to be an admission that any cook device is defective or malfunctioned; that a death or serious injury occurred; or that any cook device caused or contributed to; or is likely to cause or contribute to a death or serious injury if a malfunction occurred.
