The ziv6-35-125-6-40-ptx stent of lot number c1101487 was implanted in the patient, therefore is unavailable for evaluation.With the information provided a document based investigation was carried out.It was confirmed that no imaging would be available to support the investigation.According to complaint information the patient was diagnosed with osteomyelitis of the right 3rd toe and underwent amputation of the toe.Available information stated that the patient had pre-existing conditions including; coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, diabetes mellitus type ii, hypercholesterolemia and a history of tobacco use.It can be noted that the patient previously underwent secondary intervention to treat thrombosis within the study lesion.The site also indicated that the pre-existing peripheral vascular disease caused or contributed to the event.There is no evidence to suggest that this event did not occur.Therefore, the complaint is confirmed based on customer testimony.It is very unlikely that the reported event could have occurred due to zilver ptx malfunction; however a definitive cause of this event cannot be determined.Due to lack of imaging no other comments can be made at this time.Prior to distribution all zilver ptx devices are subject to visual inspection and functional checks to ensure device integrity.A review of the relevant manufacturing records revealed no discrepancies that could have contributed to this complaint.Upon review of complaints, this failure mode has not occurred previously with this lot number.Based on the information available to date, there is no evidence to suggest that there are any manufacturing issues associated with lot number c1101487.According to information the patient underwent amputation of the right toe.No other adverse events were reported for the patient.Quality engineering will continue to monitor complaints of this nature for potential emerging trends.

(b)(6): osteomyelitis right 3rd toe.On (b)(6) 2015, the patient underwent pre-dilatation of study lesion one, in the right distal sfa, with one inflation of a 4.0 x 20 mm balloon at 6 atm for 51 seconds.One 6.0 mm x 40 mm (lot # c1105140) zilver® ptx® v study stent was placed in the right distal superficial femoral artery via contralateral access.The implanting physician noted that ease of device deployment was neither easy nor difficult.No non-study stents were used to treat the study lesion.Post-stent dilatation was performed with three inflations of a 5.0 mm x 20 mm dilatation balloon at 6 atm for 28 seconds, 6 atm for 53 seconds, and 8 atm for 46 seconds.At the conclusion of the case, no thrombus or dissection was noted by the site, and the entire length of the study stent was apposed to the vessel wall.There was 5% residual stenosis remaining in the study lesion and the proximal and distal rvds were 5.4 mm.The post-procedural abis were not performed.On (b)(6) 2015, the patient underwent pre-dilatation of study lesion two, in the right proximal sfa, with one inflation of a 4.0 x 20 mm balloon at 6 atm for 55 seconds.One 6.0 mm x 40 mm (lot # c1101487) zilver® ptx® v study stent was placed in the right proximal superficial femoral artery via contralateral access.The implanting physician noted that ease of device deployment was neither easy nor difficult.No non-study stents were used to treat the study lesion.Post-stent dilatation was performed with two inflations of a 5.0 mm x 20 mm dilatation balloon at 5 atm for 34 seconds and at 5 atm for 32 seconds.At the conclusion of the case, no thrombus or dissection was noted by the site, and the entire length of the study stent was apposed to the vessel wall.There was 5% residual stenosis remaining in the study lesion and the proximal and distal rvds were 5.4 mm.The post-procedural abis were not performed.On (b)(6) 2015 (one day post-procedure), the patient was discharged from the hospital taking aspirin and effient.On (b)(6) 2016 (88 days post-procedure), the patient experienced a thrombosis of the right proximal and distal sfa.Clinical signs and symptoms included rest pain, worsening claudication, and worsening rutherford class.Treatment of study lesion one, in the right distal sfa, included atherectomy, balloon angioplasty, and thrombectomy.Treatment of study lesion two, in the right proximal sfa, included atherectomy, balloon angioplasty, stent placement, and thrombectomy.Secondary interventions performed to study lesion one and two resulted in a residual stenosis of < 50%.(pr#(b)(4)).On (b)(6) 2016 (265 days post-procedure), the patient was diagnosed with osteomyelitis of the right 3rd toe and underwent amputation of the toe.The patient was discharged on the same day.The investigator indicated that the event was possibly related to the study device and possibly related to the study procedure.It was also noted that pre-existing peripheral vascular disease caused or contributed to the event.Reference also related report # 3001845648-2016-00271.
