The patient was undergoing a coil embolization procedure in the left hypogastric artery using a ruby coil, ruby coil detachment handles (handle) and pod coils.During the procedure, the physician advanced a ruby coil into the target vessel and used a handle to detach it; however, the ruby coil failed to detach after multiple attempts.Therefore, the ruby coil was removed.Next, while removing a pod coil from the packaging hoop, the hospital technician noticed the pusher assembly of the pod coil was bent; therefore, the pod coil was not used in the procedure.The physician then advanced a new pod coil into the target vessel and used the same handle to detach it; however, the pod coil failed to detach.Therefore, the physician removed the handle.The procedure was completed using a new handle to detach the same pod coil.There was no report of an adverse effect to the patient.
