Event or Problem Description
|
|
A stealth 360 peripheral orbital atherectomy device (oad) was used for treatment of lesion in proximal-to-distal popliteal artery into the anterior tibial artery (at) via femoral access.The oad crown was advanced into mid popliteal but could not be advanced.Wire placement was confirmed fine.The crown advancer knob was used to advance the crown but failed.When the crown was attempted to be spun a high-pitched noise was heard.The crown was determined to be stuck/wrapped in tissue.The crown and advancer knob could not be brought back into the distal lock position despite loosening the control knob.After a few attempts to advance and pull back the oad, the crown was freed up from the tissue.The sheath and crown were able to be pulled back into position but could not be pulled through the 6 x 45cm guiding sheath.After multiple failed attempts to pull the sheath and crown through the guiding sheath the patient was transferred to the hospital for surgical removal of device to prevent damage to the vessel.Ex vivo, the oad sheath was found damaged due to the physician pulling on it to try and get it through the guiding sheath in vivo.Additional information was received from the abbott sales representative on 08november2024 indicating in the opinion of the physician, intravascular ultrasound (ivus) showed the oad was spun in an arterial flap in the mid popliteal artery causing intima tissue around the crown which did not allow the oad to retract into the sheath for removal.The patient underwent successful surgical removal of the devices on (b)(6) 2024 and was discharged the same day without further complication.

Cine review: one still image of a device and guidecatheter was provided.This image shows a piece of tissue around the device at the distal tip of the guidecatheter.The guidecatheter appears to have a bunching or accordion appearance, which may signify that a significant amount of resistance was felt and force was used while attempting to pull the device into the guidecatheter.Ultimately, it appears that the device and guidecatheter were removed as one unit.A separate piece of what appears to be tissue is laid on a sterile towel next to a ruler measuring 1.5cm.It is unknown if this separate piece of tissue is from the subsequent surgical removal or was removed with the oad and guidecatheter.Medical review: this was a case to treat a proximal popliteal to anterior tibial artery (ata) lesion with orbital atherectomy (oa).While treating the at lesion, the oa device (oad) crown became wrapped in tissue, and resistance was felt while trying to remove the oad.Multiple attempts were made to remove the oad; ultimately, the oad and the guidecatheter were removed as a single unit via a surgical procedure.Due to the information provided, it can be stated that the abbott orbital atherectomy device became entangled in a vessel flap, causing the oad to stop spinning abruptly and was unable to be removed through the guidecatheter, necessitating surgical removal of the oad and guidecatheter as one unit.Updated: b4, g3, g6, h2, h6.Csi id: (b)(4).
