Event or Problem Description
|
|
A shockwave m5 plus peripheral intravascular lithotripsy (ivl) catheter was used to treat a lesion in the external iliac artery (eia).The ivl balloon successfully delivered 210 pulses.However, a balloon loss of pressure subsequently occurred.The physician removed the catheter, and it was observed that the distal end of the balloon tip was missing.The tip was identified via fluoroscopy that it was in the eia.The physician decided to leave the tip in place and deploy a self-expanding stent graft to cover the area-as originally planned prior to the procedure.To date, no patient sequelae has occurred as a result of the detachment of catheter component.
