Event Description

The account alleges that when attempting a renal angiography after successful cannulation of the renal ostium they were manipulating/torquing and positioning the catheter for a contrast injection.During the contrast hand injection, the catheter tip started to detach.The account was able to rewire the catheter with a guidewire so that the guidewire and catheter tip were successfully removed from this patient as a unit.After catheter removal ex-vivo, they continued to manipulate the catheter again checking for catheter flexibility when the tip fractured.
