Event or Problem Description
On (b)(6) 2022, the patient was admitted for endovascular treatment of an abdominal aortic aneurysm.As reported, the procedure was going as planned until the ipsilateral limb moved proximally into the aneurysm.As reported there was not enough limb in the iliac and when the stiff wire was pulled back it brought the ipsilateral component with it.As reported, the gore representative onsite recommended extending the graft with additional components into the right iliac.The physician decided not to add any additional components.During follow up, on an unspecified date, a distal type 1 endoleak was identified down the right side of the patient.On (b)(6) 2022 a reintervention was carried out in which a gore® excluder® aaa endoprosthesis contralateral limb (plc141000) was implanted to extend the existing graft further into the right iliac in order to treat the distal type i endoleak.As reported, the procedure went well.
