It was reported that the web sl was used to treat a patient with two aneurysms, a posterior communicating artery (pcom) aneurysm and anterior communicating artery (acom) aneurysm.A web sl was deployed in the pcom aneurysm, but it could not be detached using multiple detachers and the device was removed from the patient without issues (ref: mfr report#: 2032493-2023-00654).To treat the acom aneurysm, a web sl device was placed but removed and exchanged for a larger size device.Reportedly, the replacement web sl device dislodged after detachment and encroached on the left aca with potential vessel occlusion.The web device was successfully retrieved and removed from the patient using a snare device (ref: mfr report#: 2032493-2023-00655).The patient two aneurysms were then treated with surgical clipping.According to the physician, there was no direct injury to the patient due to the use of the web device.Reportedly, the physician did not make a functional test of the devices prior to use.

Correction: h6 (device problem code).Additional information: d10, h6, h10 (summary device evaluation).Summary device evaluation: the investigation of the returned web system found the implant detached from the delivery system and the implant tether melted, indicating the device did experience thermal activation.However, the delivery system was not returned for evaluation; therefore, this investigation could not test the electrical continuity of the circuit or assess the heater coil to verify if a condition existed that would have caused or contributed to the reported event.The investigation of the returned device did not find any other damage or anomaly that would have caused or contributed to the reported complaint.
