Device evaluated by mfr.: the device was returned with the stent detached from the balloon.The balloon catheter was not returned for analysis.The stent was received advance on to the shaft of a mustang balloon catheter.A microscopic examination found rows 1-6 of the proximal stent struts to be severely damaged.This type of damage is consistent with excessive force being applied to the device as the user attempts to remove it from the patient.No other issues were identified with the stent that could potentially have contributed to the complaint incident.No other issues were identified during the product analysis.
