A clinical assessment could not be completed due to lack of medical records and imaging.Based on the reported event, the most likely cause of the reported limb occlusion was determined to be anatomy related.A clinical assessment showed that the device did not likely contribute to the event.Procedure-related circumstances are not likely to have contributed to this event.Anatomical factors such as small diameter vessel at the landing zone and considerable circumferential calcification in the iliac artery likely contributed to the event.Cautionary product use conditions could not be determined.A review of the device quality records shows that the device demonstrated compliance to established procedures and specifications at the time of manufacture.(b)(4).
