Event Description

It was reported that during the procedure, flow diverter (subject device) partially deployed but it did not detach completely.In order to refine the placement, the physician tried to insert the subject flow diverter into the microcatheter, but it could only be retracted halfway with no way to go further.The physician was forced to pull the carrier microcatheter up over the whole thing to protect the partially deployed subject flow diverter that was halfway out.The physician removed it safely and successfully from the patient's anatomy.The procedure was completed successfully.No clinical consequences were reported to the patient due to this event.
