Film evaluation summary: the reported right limb occlusion was confirmed; however, the exact cause could not be determined from the films provided.Pre-implant ct¿s were not provided and the anatomy at implant could not be reviewed.Angiograms at implant were also not available for review; the blood flow dynamics could not be assessed from the ct¿s provided.It is possible that implanting within the highly angulated (70 deg) neck, which also contained thrombus proximal to the implanted devices, may have contributed to the occlusion.Device oversizing may have also been a potential factor.The thrombus/occlusion may also have been caused by a patient condition: poor distal runoff, an unknown coagulopathy that is now presenting, or a previous history of pad.If information is provided in the future, a supplemental report will be issued.
