Event or Problem Description
It was reported that during a procedure to extend the lower limb of a graft in a patient, a stent was introduced into the sheath and advanced into the left distal common iliac artery, which was noted to be heavily calcified.Severe resistance was encountered while advancing the stent due to the calcified vessel.Upon attempting to remove the stent system, the stent was found to have detached from the balloon and remained in the sheath, resulting in stent dislodgement and the stent not being deployed in the patient.The device was safely removed, and a new device was used to complete the procedure.No harm to the patient was noted.
