Event or Problem Description
|
|
The physician used an everflex 7x80 mm self-expanding stent with entrust delivery system to treat a 60 mm moderately calcified plaque lesion in the distal-left common iliac artery.The vessel was 7 mm in diameter and was moderately tortuous.The lesion had resulted in 75% stenosis in the vessel.The procedure used a 7 fr 45 cm non-medtronic sheath and a non-medtronic guidewire.The device was prepped as per the ifu with no issues identified.The vessel was pre-dilated using a 6 mm pre-dilation device.The everflex stent did not pass through a previously deployed stent and the physician encountered no resistance delivering the device.It was reported that after deploying the stent in the target area, the physician noticed that the proximal portion of the stent was not deployed properly based on the way the end markers looked.Ivus was used to look at the inside and wall apposition.A pta balloon was easily pass ed through the stent and inflated.A new 8x40 everflex stent was deployed at the proximal portion of the first stent and the procedure was completed.No patient injury was reported.
