Event or Problem Description
Physician intended to use a chocolate pta balloon with a non-medtronic 7fr sheath and guidewire during treatment of a 200mm cto (chronic total occlusion-100%) in the patient¿s proximal, mid and distal left superficial femoral artery (sfa) and popliteal artery.Atherectomy (turbohawk) had been performed prior to this.Vessel diameter reported as 6mm.The lesion is described as being calcified and fibrous.Moderate tortuosity and calcification are reported.A non-medtronic inflation device was used.Ifu was followed and the device was prepped without issue.The balloon was passed through a previously deployed stent.No resistance was experienced.An angiogram was done post use of the balloon and the physician observed the caging of the chocolate balloon had come off.The physician trapped the caging to the popliteal wall.Treatment confirmed with a 5.5x150x120 device to complete the procedure.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Product analysis: the chocolate pta was returned for evaluation.The chocolate pta was inspected.The device was showed the balloon was expanded/inflated previously.Dried blood was observed on the exterior of the manifold assembly.The nitinol constraining structure did not appear to be present over the balloon.The balloon segment was inspected under microscope.The distal portion of the balloon showed the distal row of the nitinol constraining structure bonded to the catheter.The medial segment of the balloon which expands did not show nitinol constraining structure.The proximal portion of the balloon (approximately 14 cm form the distal tip) showed the nitinol constraining structure frayed out from the balloon.A fracture of the nitinol constraining structure was identified.If information is provided in the future, a supplemental report will be issued.
