It was reported the procedure was to treat a heavily calcified lesion in the left anterior descending (lad) coronary artery.The vessel was pre-dilated with an unspecified balloon dilation catheter.The 2.25x08 mm xience alpine stent delivery system (sds) failed to cross a previously implanted stent.The sds was removed and it was noted that the stent had dislodged in the lad.An unspecified stent was used to crush the stent against the vessel wall.An attempt was made to advance a 2.5x12 mm xience alpine sds in the patient anatomy, however the sds failed to cross the same previously implanted stent and the stent dislodged in the lad.Another stent was used to crush the stent against the vessel wall.No additional treatment was required; the procedure was complete at this time.There was no adverse patient sequela and no clinically significant delay in the procedure.No additional information was provided.
