Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported that stent partial deployment occurred.The 99% stenosed target lesion was located in the moderately tortuous and moderately calcified right iliac artery.A 10x40x75 epic stent self-expanding was selected for use.During the procedure, pre-dilation was performed with a mustang balloon catheter via a contralateral leg approach, and it was confirmed that dilation was able to be performed.After that, a stent was inserted, and an attempt was made to deploy the stent by turning the handle at the lesion site, but the stent did not deploy even when the tip began to emerge.Dilation was attempted through the stent using a balloon, but the balloon could not be inserted within the stent, so it was discontinued.The device was removed, and there were no separation/breakage observed in the removed stent.The procedure was completed with another of the same device.There were no patient complications as a result of this event.
