Event or Problem Description
Additional information received reported that no detachment attempts had been made.There was a slight kink in the pushwire observed as the anatomy was tortuous.There was no kink/damage observed to the progreat 2.4fr catheter.It was noted that there was resistance during deliver or repositioning.The anatomy was extremely tortuous and it was very difficult to push the coils around to the location needed, so the surgeon advanced the coils small amounts at a time making sure they didn¿t bend the wire.
