Event or Problem Description
The patient was undergoing a coil embolization procedure in the renal artery using ruby coils and a lantern delivery microcatheter (lantern).During the procedure, the physician placed a ruby coil into the aneurysm; however, the physician was not satisfied with the placement of the ruby coil.While retracting the ruby coil to reposition it, the physician experienced resistance and subsequently, the ruby coil became stuck within the lantern.Therefore, the physician removed all devices from the patient and then removed the ruby coil from the lantern.The physician then placed two ruby coils into the aneurysm using the lantern.While implanting the last ruby coil (f93620) inside the aneurysm, the ruby coil unintentionally detached and subsequently, part of the ruby coil was in the renal artery.Therefore, the physician placed a stent to hold part of the ruby coil within the vessel wall.The procedure ended at this point.There was no report of an adverse effect to the patient.
