Event or Problem Description
Graft deployed.Cannulation of renal arteries done.All 3 trigger wires pulled.Top cap deployed.When trying to go and recapture the top cap, the gray positioner was very difficult to push up thru the graft.With a lot of force, the physician was able to get the gray positioner up to the top cap.The rest of the procedure went as planned.No endoleak seen on final angio.A follow up post ct with no contrast the following day to check the integrity of the graft, and the physician commented one or two of the z-stents looked "unusual" on the ct.The patient was discharged.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The device was not returned for evaluation.Medical imaging was supplied and reviewed by the william cook australia medical director: "i can¿t see any fault or failure of the device components, but due to the patient¿s anatomy, and the positioner possibly getting caught under the ¿lip¿ of the stent at the acute backwards angulation, this would be classed as a procedural problem." the work order (b)(4) was reviewed and appears complete and correct.There are checks during manufacturing where a non-conforming top cap and grey positioner would most likely be identified.The device ifu states in the "docking of top cap" section: loosen the pin vise.Secure sheath and inner cannula to avoid any movement of these components.Advance the grey positioner over the inner cannula until it docks with the top cap.Note: if resistance occurs, slightly rotate grey positioner and continue to gently advance.Retighten the pin vise and withdraw the entire top cap and grey positioner through the graft and through the sheath by pulling on the inner cannula.Leave the sheath and wire guide in place.A definitive root cause could not be determined from the available information.It is possible that one or more of the following factors may have contributed to the complaint: procedural or patient factors.
