The device was not returned for analysis.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 similar incidents from this lot.As reportedly there was no damage noted to the device during the inspection prior to use, the investigation determined the reported difficulties appear to be related to circumstances of the procedure as it is likely that after the inspection prior to use inadvertent mishandling during preparation for use resulted in the reported stent dislodgement.There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to manufacture, design or labeling.D10.The device was initially reported as returning, but has now been reported as not returning.
