    SUBSEQUENT TO THE FINAL REPORT, ADDITIONAL INFORMATION WAS RECEIVED. DURING REMOVAL OF THE ACCUNET FILTER ALONG WITH THE EMBOLIC PROTECTION SYSTEM (EPS), RESISTANCE WAS FELT WITH THE DEPLOYED 7-10 MM X 40 MM ACCULINK STENT. THEREFORE, A SERIES OF MANEUVERS WERE DONE WITH THE RECOVERY CATHETER AND THE PATIENT'S HEAD WAS MOVED; HOWEVER, IT WAS STILL NOT POSSIBLE TO RETRIEVE THE FILTER WITH THE EPS. IT WAS NOT EVEN POSSIBLE TO PUSH THE RECOVERY CATHETER UPWARDS AS THE UNIT WAS STUCK WITH THE STENT. THE RECOVERY CATHETER WAS THEN TUGGED AND THE FILTER WAS REMOVED FROM THE ANATOMY. HOWEVER, THE EPS ALSO MOVED THE ACCULINK STENT FROM THE LESION TO THE COMMON CAROTID ARTERY. AS STENT WAS THE APPROPRIATE SIZE FOR THE ARTERY AND REMAINED IN PLACE, NO FURTHER TREATMENT WAS PERFORMED. THE STENT APPEARED TO BE WELL APPOSED TO THE VESSEL. THE PATIENT IS STABLE AND HAD A FOLLOW-UP ON 10/25/2018. IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THE PATIENT WILL BE RE-HOSPITALIZED IN THE FUTURE AS THE LESION RESTENOSED. NO ADDITIONAL INFORMATION WAS PROVIDED.
