Product analysis summary: the stent was positioned between the marker bands but not meeting specifications due to deformation of the proximal stent wrap.Deformation was evident to the 19th distal stent wraps with struts raised.No deformation was evident to the distal tip.The inner lumen could not be verified with a 0.015 inch mandrel most likely due to hardened blood in the guidewire lumen.Slight bends are evident on the shaft of the device which are consistent with coiling of the device for return.No other damage evident to the remainder of the device.If information is provided in the future, a supplemental report will be issued.
