[168442710] It was reported to boston scientific corporation on november 5, 2019 that a wallflex biliary rx fully covered rmv stent has been implanted in the bile duct during an endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ercp) with stent placement procedure performed on (b)(6) 2019. According to the complainant, during the procedure, the stent was able to be deployed. However, during removal of the delivery system, the catheter got stuck inside the stent. Reportedly, the physician made several attempts to release the delivery system from the stent but it was unsuccessful and the delivery system broke into two pieces. The physician went to retrieve the broken portion of the delivery system that was still stuck inside the stent, but it was extremely difficult to remove. The physician switched from ercp scope to an esophagogastroduodenoscopy (egd) scope and was able to successfully grab the broken pieces and removed it from the patient. Cholangiogram was performed and confirmed no defects were found. The stent remains implanted and the procedure was completed. There were no patient complication reported as a result of this event.
