Only the stent implant was returned for analysis.The reported device damaged by another device was unable to be replicated in a testing environment as it was based on operational circumstances.A review of the lot history record identified no manufacturing nonconformities issued to the reported lot that would have contributed to this event.Additionally, a review of the complaint history identified no other incidents from this lot.The investigation determined the reported difficulties appear to be related to circumstances of the procedure as it is likely that during removal of the omnilink stent delivery system interaction with the deployed 7x100mm absolute pro self-expanding stent resulted in the omnilink stent becoming entangled within the distal portion of the absolute pro stent.Manipulation of devices resulted in the reported device damaged by another device/noted stent damages (stretched, bent, flared, cut) as both stents were remove from the patient.The treatment(s) appears to be related to the operational context of the procedure.There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to manufacture, design or labeling.Na.
