As reported, four days post stent implantation, patient came in with st elevation myocardial infarction (stemi) due to stent thrombosis.As per the physician evaluation, a 3.5mm x 15mm ridaforolimus eluting (elunir) stent appeared to be adequately opposed but possibly under deployed.The target lesion was the mid-left anterior descending (mlad) artery wherein the device was implanted.A non-cordis stent was placed within the current elunir stent to remove a possible outflow obstruction that may have contributed to in-stent thrombosis.There was a possible proximal edge dissection therefore, additional left anterior descending (lad) non-cordis stent was placed.The product was stored as per the instruction for use (ifu).Thrombosis traveled to obtuse marginalis (om1) artery and circumflex (circ) artery therefore, non-cordis stents were placed in both vessels.The device will not be returned for evaluation as it was implanted.
