An attempt was made to use 2 x 2.5x30mm resolute integrity drug eluting stents to treat lesions in the mid to distal rca with severe calcification and 100% stenosis.No damaged was noted to packaging, negative prep was performed with no issues noted, the devices were inspected with no issues noted, the devices were inspected with no issues noted.The lesion was pre-dilated a euphora balloon.An attempt was made to use a 2.5x12mm resolute integrity, but it failed to cross the lesion.The lesion was further dilated with euphora balloon.A 2.5x22mm resolute integrity stent inserted, but failed to cross the lesion due to calcification.The lesion was further dilated with euphora balloon.One of the 2.5x30mm resolute integrity stents was inserted but failed to cross.A 2.5x 22mm resolute integrity stent was inserted, but failed to cross.The lesion was further dilated with euphora balloon.A 2.5x 22mm resolute integrity stent was deployed in the distal rca.The 2.5x30mm resolute integrity stent was reinserted, failed to cross and the end of stent was deformed upon inspection, due to excessive force applied to the stent to cross the lesion.The 2.5x 12mm resolute integrity was reinserted, deployed in the mid/distal rca and was post dilated.The second 2.5x30mm resolute integrity stent was inserted, and did not cross due to heavy calcification in the mid rca.A 2.5x18mm stent was inserted and deployed in the mid rca and was post dil ated with the stent balloon.A 2.5x26mm resolute integrity was inserted and also deployed mid rca, and was postdilated with the stent balloon.A 2.5x18mm resolute integrity was inserted and was also deployed mid rca, and was postdilated with the stent balloon.An nc euphora balloon was used to post dilate.The procedure was completed.The attempt was to full metal jacket the rca.Resistance was encountered when advancing the 2.5x30mm resolute integrity devices.It was reported that the 2.5x30mm resolute integrity stents became deformed during positioning/advancement in vivo.No patient complications have been reported as a result of this event.
