Event Description

The patient was undergoing a coil embolization procedure to treat a basilar tip aneurysm using penumbra smart coils (smart coil).During the procedure, after the third smart coil was deployed and detached, the angiography showed a protrusion of a previously placed coil.The physician continued the procedure by placing six additional smart coils.Towards the end of the procedure, clot formation was identified on the displaced loop of coil and an integrilin drip was started.The physician then decided to place a stent in order to tack the protruding coil against the wall of the vessel.The patient was discharged home on (b)(6) 2017.The reported clot formation was adjudicated to have no relationship to the penumbra devices.However, the reported coil protrusion was possibly related to the aneurysm, procedure and penumbra smart coils.It is unknown which of the three previously placed smart coils protruded out.
