Event or Problem Description

It was reported that the proximal end of the coil protruded to a non-target vessel causing non-targeted embolization, requiring an attempted snaring of the device, and hospitalization.This 14x50 embold fibered detachable coil system was selected for use in an endoleak embolization procedure.During the procedure, the coil became difficult to advance approximately 30cm into the distal part of the microcatheter.It was retracted and it was believed that the coil became detached at the coupler, stretching approximately 100cm and becoming entangled.The microcatheter was removed and the distal end of the coil remained in the targeted vessel; however, the proximal end protruded into the branches of the superior mesenteric artery (sma), causing non-target embolization.It was noted the target vessel was moderately tortuous.An attempt had been made to snare the coil without success.The procedure was completed, the patient was hospitalized for observation.No additional interventions were required and the endoleak sac was successfully embolized.
