Event or Problem Description

It was reported that during a peripheral therapeutic procedure, an altatrack catheter was loaded over an.035" altatrack guidewire used in a complex fevar procedure in the abdominal aorta plus side branches.During navigation of the right renal artery, a dissection occurred, and a significant decrease in blood flow to the upper and middle portion of the right kidney was observed.To treat the dissection, a bare metal stent was implanted distal to the covered stent with improved blood flow.The patient was discharged as expected, 3 days post-procedure.The physician confirmed that the dissection was related to the guidewire.This adverse event is being submitted because the altatrack guidewire caused a dissection, and required stent placement.
