The device was not returned for evaluation.Production record and corrective and preventive actions (capa) reviews were performed and revealed no indication of a product quality issue.Additionally, a review of the complaint handling database identified no other complaints.The investigation determined the reported difficulties and subsequent unexpected medical intervention appear to be related to circumstances of the procedure, as it is likely the device interacted with the previously implanted stent during advancement, causing the reported failure to advance.Further interaction with the previously implanted stent during retraction of the device likely contributed to reported difficult to remove, ultimately causing the reported stent dislodgement.There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to manufacture, design, or labeling.
