Balt usa reference: #(b)(4).25jun2025: additional information was received from the issuer regarding this incident.Therefore an updated reportability evaluation was documented which determined this incident should be upgraded to reportable based on the additional information received.The returned device was inspected in our quality laboratory.During our analysis: we observed the implant coil and introducer sheath was not included with the device return.We observed no sign of detachment cycle being ran.We observed no visual damage to the detachment zone with the pet jacket, lead wires and solder joints intact.We observed multiple minor kinks along the hypotube; we observed the microcatheter was not return; we conducted destructive testing of the delivery pusher to reveal the detachment profile of the sr thread; we observed the distal tip of the sr thread is opaque in color - indicating the thread endured an overload in tensile stress.Root cause of the reported issue can likely be attributed to an overload of tensile stress exerted on the implant coil.Upon device return, we observed the delivery pusher was returned with minor kinks along the hypotube with the implant disconnected from the delivery pusher and not included in the return.During the device analysis, we conducted destructive analysis to reveal the profile of the sr thread which revealed the distal tip of the sr thread experienced a change in color and was opaque - indicating the thread endured an overload in tensile stress.Without the return of the implant coil its exact condition is unknown, however if it were to have become damaged, this can cause excessive friction within the microcatheter.Further attempts to retract the delivery pusher while the implant is damaged can ultimately lead to the observed mechanical detachment.Furthermore, it is unknown if the microcatheter associated with the incident was damaged, which could have contributed to the incident.However, this could not be further investigated without the return of the associated microcatheter.It is indicated in the lhr that the unit underwent 100% inspection which verifies that the implant was free of damage at the point of final inspection.Review of the lot history records did not reveal any in-process or lot-specific issue that could account for the observation.No additional complaint against lot number f250300484 has been made for the same issue.Comprehensive analysis of this failure mode has remained subject to monitoring for any unacceptable increase in trend.The submission of this report or related information to the fda, and its release by fda, does not reflect a conclusion by the party submitting this report of the fda that the report or related information is an admission that the manufacturer, their employees, or the device caused or contributed to the reportable event.
