Additional Manufacturer Narrative

Based on the clinical assessment for this event, the most likely cause of the loss of seal was determined to be user related, due to the off label neck and vent procedure.The significant juxtarenal angulation at the level of the renal arteries likely contributed to the event.The final patient disposition is unknown and there have been no additional patient sequelae reported.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).
