Subsequent to the initially filed report it was reported that the lesion was heavily calcified.The balloon rupture was noted during the first inflation of the sds to approximately 4-6 atmospheres.The stent appeared flared and there was resistance during removal into the guiding catheter so all devices were removed as a single unit and the stent dislodged during the attempt to pull it back into the guiding catheter.The stent was removed via cut down at the other hospital.Additionally, medwatch mw5165908 received which states: coronary stent attempted to be implanted, the stent balloon burst at initial inflation, resulting in a free-floating stent.The stent was not able to be retrieved.The patient had to be transferred to a vascular surgeon to have the stent removed.No additional information was provided.
