Manufacturing review: the device history records were reviewed with special attention to the raw materials, subassemblies, manufacturing process and quality control testing.This lot met all release criteria.There was nothing found to indicate there was a manufacturing related cause for this event.Investigation summary: the device was returned for evaluation.A visual inspection found frayed fibers on the balloon.The balloon was inflated with an in-house inflation device and a pinhole rupture was noted on the balloon.Therefore, the investigation is confirmed for frayed fibers and for a pinhole rupture.The definitive root cause for the identified frayed material or pinhole rupture could not be determined based upon the available information.It is unknown if patient and/or procedural issues contributed to the reported event.Labeling review: the review of the ifu (instructions for use), indications, warnings, precautions, cautions, possible complications, and contraindications showed that the product labeling is adequate.
