Correction: corrected report type in section b from "adverse event" to "product problem".Items received for investigation: headway-duo 16 microcatheter.The microcatheter was returned with squid embolic visible in the hub and at the distal tip.No evidence of leaking or breaches in the lumen were observed along the length of the device; however, due to the occlusion of the squid embolic, the investigation could not perform any leak testing to further assess the alleged product issue.The investigation of the returned headway microcatheter found squid embolic occluding the hub and lumen.No evidence of leaking or breaches in the lumen were observed along the length of the device during the investigation; however, due to the occlusion of the squid embolic, the investigation could not perform any leak testing to further assess the alleged product issue.
