Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported that this was a procedure performed to treat a heavily calcified target lesion in an unspecified below-the-knee, lower extremity artery.During advancement of the trek dilatation catheter, the device was unable to cross to the target lesion and became trapped in the vessel calcification.An attempt was made to remove the device; however, resistance was noted and the distal balloon portion of the dilatation catheter separated, remaining in the patient anatomy.A snare device was advanced and the separated segment was able to be removed.There was no adverse patient sequela and no clinically significant delay.No additional intervention was performed.
