It was reported that the superficial femoral artery (sfa) was treated using a third-party sheath, 8f prodigy catheter, and 8f prodigy twist.The clot was organized.A vessel dissection was diagnosed, which the physician was unaware of until the initial angiogram.The dissection impeded blood flow to the foot.It was determined that the dissection was the primary reason for the lack of flow and was unrelated to the catheter's ability to remove clot.It is unknown whether any additional intervention was performed to address the dissection.There was no malfunction reported during the procedure.
