It was reported that the subject flow diverter stent was successfully implanted in a patient on (b)(6) 2022.Post procedure on (b)(6) 2022 distal device stenting/ distal device fish mouthing (distal device foreshortening and fish mouthing) was noted with the subject flow diverter during a diagnostic (interventional) procedure.Additional stent was implanted to remediate fish mouthing and medication (aggrastat) given.It was noted that there was less than twenty five percent stenosis seen in subject flow diverter.There was no reduction in the blood flow to the distal cerebral tissue due to distal device foreshortening and fish mouthing.There were no neurological deficit or sequelae clinical sequelae noticed due to distal device foreshortening and fish mouthing and the patient remains intact.It is noted that the patient is recovering from distal device stenting/ distal device fish mouthing.The distal device stenting/ distal device fish mouthing is casually related to the study procedure, the study device (subject flow diverter) and possibly related to related to the disease under study.

Due to the automated mes system there are controls in the manufacturing process to ensure the product met specifications upon release.The subject device is not available; therefore, functional testing as well as visual testing cannot be performed.The reported event is covered in the device directions for use (dfu).As well, the risk of the reported event is documented in the risk documentation and there are current controls to mitigate the risk of the as reported event.The reported complaint could not be confirmed, and it could not be definitively determined if the device failed to meet specifications because the product was not returned.Additional information provided by the customer indicated the device was prepared as per the dfu and implanted successfully.Prior to treatment the patient had 0-25% of parent vessel stenosis.The subject device was implanted at straight segment (m1 segment).On the 17nov2022, the percentage of parent artery stenosis and stenosis in flow diverter stent was 0-25% for both (1+ month prior to the ae).There were vessel wall/intimal changes noted at the site of implantation, there was the beginning of neo-endotheliazation on the ventral aspect of the fds at the distal end.A second stent was implanted to remediate fish mouthing.The percentage of parent artery stenosis and stenosis in flow diverter stent was < 25% and currently there was no reduction in the blood flow to the distal cerebral tissue due to reported issue.There was no clinical sequelae noticed due to the reported issue and the patient remains intact.As a product related root cause does not apply and the issue is due to a known physiological effect of the procedure and/or patient condition noted within the dfu, product labeling and/or risk documentation files, an assignable cause of 'anticipated procedural complication' will be assigned to the as reported 'non-flow limiting stenosis with stent deformation¿ and ¿patient medical or surgical intervention required¿ in this complaint.

B1 adverse event/product problem - updated.B5 executive summary - updated.H6 device code grid - updated.H6 conclusion code grid - updated.Due to the automated mes system there are controls in the manufacturing process to ensure the product met specifications upon release.The subject device is not available; therefore, functional testing as well as visual testing cannot be performed.The reported event is covered in the device directions for use (dfu).As well, the risk of the reported event is documented in the risk documentation and there are current controls to mitigate the risk of the as reported event.The reported complaint could not be confirmed, and it could not be definitively determined if the device failed to meet specifications because the product was not returned.Additional information provided by the customer indicated the device was prepared as per the dfu and the size of the stent was appropriate for the treatment site.There was full expansion of stent cell with apposition to vessel wall achieved after implantation and confirmed under fluoroscopy and the flow diverter performed as intended, it cured the patient of her aneurysm.There were no difficulties encountered during the procedure (while transfer/advancement/deployment of the stent/withdrawal) that could have contributed to reported issue.The patient¿s anatomy was not tortuous.Prior to treatment the parent vessel had 0 - 25% stenosis prior to the procedure.The subject device was implanted at straight segment (m1 segment).On the (b)(6) 2022, the percentage of parent artery stenosis and stenosis in flow diverter stent was 0-25% for both (1+ month prior to the ae).Neurological deficit and sequelae were both mrs & nihss as 0 (1 month prior to the ae).There were vessel wall/intimal changes noted at the site of implantation, there was the beginning of neo-endotheliazation on the ventral aspect of the subject flow diverter stent fds at the distal end.The adverse event resulted in hospitalization which required the placement of wingspan stent from left m1 segment to supraclinoid ica to remediate fishmouthing.Fishmouthing is the term for ovalization and shrinkage of the distal end of a braided flow diverter.The wingspan was used as an intervention to remediate fishmouthing.The wingspan stent was prepared as per dfu.There was no issue with the wingspan device during implantation, the wingspan performed as intended.The wingspan was implanted through surgical intervention via a percutaneous intervention.The wingspan was not the cause of foreshortening and fishmouthing of the device.Foreshortening is the term that means the total length of the device became less from the distal end.The wingspan stent was not implanted during the initial procedure.The percentage of parent artery stenosis and stenosis in flow diverter stent was < 25% and currently there was no reduction in the blood flow to the distal cerebral tissue due to reported issue.There was no clinical sequelae noticed due to the reported issue and the patient remains intact.Additional information received on 17-nov-2023: just some update, there was 50-75% stenosis within fd observed at 6m fu per core lab reading.Which may be hard to get more information from the site since only 0-25% stenosis per site.As a product related root cause does not apply and the issue is due to a known physiological effect of the procedure and/or patient condition noted within the dfu, product labeling and/or risk documentation files, an assignable cause of anticipated procedural complication will be assigned to the ar code ¿patient parent vessel stenosis¿.While there are a number of potential causes for the reported issue, because review and analysis of available information failed to identify a definitive cause, a cause of undeterminable was assigned for the reported ¿stent tapering¿.
