It was reported that stent inadequate apposition and migration occurred.The target lesion was located in the left anterior descending (lad) artery.A 4.00 x 12 synergy ii drug-eluting stent was deployed to treat the lesion.However, post deployment, the stent dislodged, came back into the left main artery, out into the aorta, and down into the iliac artery.The physician was able to wire and snare the stent and retrieve it from the patient's body.The procedure was completed with another 4.0 x 12 stent.No patient complications were reported.The physician commented that the event may have been due to the stent not being fully deployed and having it still mounted slightly on the balloon when the device was pulled back into a larger vessel.
