Since the device remained implanted in the patient and there is no induction of device being explanted, further investigation on the actual device cannot be performed.Based on the information available, it is not possible to establish a definitive root cause of the reported event.However, from the document review performed, no manufacturing deficiencies were identified.It is possible that patient clinical history and risk factors (i.E., hypertension, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, tobacco history) has contributed to the reported event.Ultimately, since the device was not returned to the manufacturer for further investigation, this cannot be confirmed.Should any further information be received in the future, a follow up report will be provided.
