It was reported that: "15 x 14 ica aneurysm.Took 16 complex 18 and optimax coils.The 17th coil was a 4x13 max but was having trouble going in, manipulated mc many times, coil was half in aneurysm, pulled gently to remove and started to unravel.After 2 hours we were able to snare with no harm to patient." 25aug2022, additional information: "can you clarify what happened in the incident? was the implant still connected to the delivery pusher? yes.Was the implant detached using the controller when it was half in the aneurysm? or did the coil prematurely detach? they eventually pulled coil enough from back end that it broke off from pusher wire." 12sep2022, additional information: discussion with the sales representative present during the case indicated that the physician noticed that the implant became stretched and broke from the delivery pusher after it was noted that there was no more movement with the implant while still retracting the delivery pusher when attempting to manipulate the coil to better seat the implant.The implant coil was then snared out in approximately 6 different pieces.
