Event or Problem Description

|
The patient was undergoing a coil embolization procedure in the anterior communicating artery using penumbra smart coils (smart coil) and penumbra smart coil detachment handles (handle).During the procedure, the physician advanced a smart coil to the target vessel and attempted to detach it using the handle; however, the smart coil failed to detach.The physician then attempted to manually detach the smart coil but, the coil still failed to detach.Therefore, the smart coil was removed.Subsequently, the same issue occurred with another smart coil.It was reported that attempts were made to detach the smart coils with two different handles.The procedure was completed using two additional smart coils and the second handle.There was no report of an adverse effect to the patient.
