Event Description
|
During a procedure an attempt was made to use a 2.25 x 38 mm resolute onyx device to treat a moderately tortuous and calcified lesion with 90% stenosis located in the proximal to mid lad.There was no damage noted to the device packaging.There were no issues removing the device from the hoop.The device was inspected with no issues.Negative prep was performed with no issues.The lesion was pre-dilated.The device did not pass through a previously deployed stent.Resistance was encountered when advancing the device.Excessive force was used.Simultaneously, a 2.25 x 12 mm onyx device was delivered through a 6f launcher guide catheter (ebu375) to treat a lesion in the first diagonal.The 2.25 x 12 mm device was delivered to the target lesion first and then the 2.25 x 38 mm was attempted to be delivered to the proximal to mid lad lesion.During delivery the 2.25 x 38 mm device became wedged in the calcified mid lad.When an attempt was made to withdraw the device the stent dislodged.The dislodged stent was dilated (using a 1.5 x 15 mm non-medtronic balloon, a 2.0 x 12 mm euphora balloon and a 2.75 mm non-medtronic nc balloon) and deployed.The stent that was delivered but not deployed in the first diagonal (2.25 x 12 mm) was subsequently removed and inspected and the stent was seen to be still mounted on the balloon.After deploying the dislodged stent, a 2.25 x 22 mm onyx was successfully delivered through a 6f guideliner to the mid lad (distal part of the residual lesion).When the wire was pulled back, a proximal lad dissection was noted.It was indicated that the dissection was caused by the deployment of the stent and manipulation of devices proximal to the stent.The dissection was successfully treated by deploying a 2.75 x 15 mm onyx proximal to the 2.25 x 38 mm device.After finishing the lad pci, the wire was removed and a dislodged stent or a piece of the original dislodged stent was noticed at the tip of the guide catheter.Images showed that a stent piece migrated into the proximal cx.It was reported that a segment of the 2.25 x 38 mm device had broken off and was in the proximal lad and that during an attempt to snare the segment it moved to the proximal lcx.The segment was crushed in place using a 2.5 x 12 mm euphora balloon and stented over with a 2.5 x 15 mm onyx.This reduced the stenosis in the proximal lcx from 60% to 0%.Pci was performed on the lesion in the proximal 1st diagonal using a euphora balloon and stenosis was reduced from 80% to 20%.During removal of the wire from the lcx a thrombus was noted to have closed the om1.The cause of the thrombus is unknown but it is indicated that it might have migrated from the proximal lad while trying to retrieve the dislodged stent.The om1 was wired and the thrombus successfully removed with a non-medtronic extraction catheter.Flow was restored and the case was finished.No further patient injury is reported.

Additional information: when the lad became dissected and closed the patient became bradycardia and hypotensive and also developed atrial fibrillation.If information is provided in the future, a supplemental report will be issued.
