Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
The manufacturing lot evaluation confirmed all devices met specifications prior to release.The device was not returned as the device remains implanted therefore no evaluation was completed.Clinical assesment shows the left side type ib endoleak due to the cephalic left limb migration into the aorta and secondary endovascular procedure events are confirmed.Device, user, procedure or anatomy relatedness of this complaint could not be determined.The contributing factors for the type 1b endoleak was the cephalic limb migration.The contributing factors for the limb migration could not be determined due to a lack of the pre ct (computed tomography) and/or any relevant medical information.The final patient status was reported being stable.No additional investigation of this reported event is planned however if additional information pertinent to the incident is obtained, a follow-up report will be submitted.Endologix will continue to monitor this complaint and similar complaints in the event further investigation is needed.
