It was reported that the physician used a hawkone m with a 6f 45cm non-medtronic sheath for treatment of a calcified/plaque lesion in the patients right proximal common iliac artery.The vessel was described as slightly calcified and slightly tortuous.The ifu was followed and the hawkone m was prepped without issue.The vessel was not pre-dilated.It was reported that severe resistance was experienced when attempting to withdraw the device.The wire wrapped around the nosecone of the hawkone m.The nosecone became bent resulting in tip detachment.The tip was reported to have separated at the hinge pin.The guidewire was reported to have been torn from the distal tip.Two cut downs were carried out to remove the detached portion.A non-medtronic stent was placed and the procedure was completed.The patient was reported to be stable.

Additional Manufacturer Narrative

|
Additional information: the nosecone did not completely detach.The two cut downs were performed on both groins to remove the nosecone.The hawkone was not received for evaluation.No ancillary devices from the procedure were received.A single photograph of a cine image was received for evaluation.The cine image shows the cutter housing in the vessel anatomy.The cutter head is not visible in the cutter housing cutter window.The cutter housing does not appear to be separated from the cutter shaft.The cutter housing appears to be separated from the cutter distal assembly coil housing and distal tip.A guidewire appears to run from the cutter housing to the coil housing and distal tip.Based on the cine image the guidewire appears to be prolapsed and the guidewire lumen appears to be zippered.If information is provided in the future, a supplemental report will be issued.
