Attempts to place a hydrofill 5 mm x15 cm coil were unsuccessful as the coil detached prior to being fully deployed within the aneurysm and extended into the distal v3 segment of the left vertebral artery.The coil had to be removed from the body with a 2 mm amplatz gooseneck snare and progreat catheter using fluoroscopic guidance.Control angiography demonstrated progressive occlusion of the aneurysm.Completion angiography was performed in the working projection and ap(anterior-posterior) and lateral projections demonstrating no evidence for thrombus at the coil-parent artery interface or distal emboli.Catheter and sheath were removed from both the right and left common femoral artery access and hemostasis was obtained with an angio-seal device.Unintended coil detachment resulted in foreign body placement within the left vertebral artery requiring foreign body retrieval using amplatz gooseneck snare described above.
