A visual and dimensional inspection was performed on the returned device.The reported material deformation was confirmed.The reported stent dislodgement was not confirmed as the stent implant was stationary on the balloon between the markers.A review of the lot history record identified no manufacturing nonconformities issued to the reported lot that would have contributed to this event.Additionally, a review of the complaint history identified no other incidents.The investigation was unable to determine a conclusive cause for the reported difficulties.There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to manufacture, design or labeling.
