Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Data files showing the time course of the dilation and lumen diameter measurements were reviewed with the physician who performed the cases.The case showed that the perforation appeared to occur at less than 25mm dilation diameter.In discussion with the physician, it was noted the second patient had a diverticulum.Data files from the case show that no malfunction of the endoflip system or esoflip balloon dilation catheter occurred.Furthermore, biomedical engineering at the hospital successfully completed a functional check of the pump 6/12/2017 to verify the system.The most probable root cause of this event is anticipated procedural complication as the reported event is a known physiological effect of the procedure (aliment pharmacol ther 2011;34:832-9).
