Event or Problem Description
The healthcare professional reported that during an endovascular embolization procedure, the 2.5mm x 3.5cm cerepak freeform mini (mcr092535 / 31212048) was positioned and there were two attempts to detach it with the detachment handle (mdh1 / 102109430) and once via manual break.The coil failed to detach.The procedure was reportedly delayed by 15 minutes, but it was successfully completed without any negative patient impact.On (b)(6) 2025, additional information was received.The information indicated that the procedure was targeting a 3.7mm x 3mm x 3mm unruptured aneurysm on the anterior communicating artery.When the coil was removed, it was not stretched; it was still attached to the delivery system.There was no evidence of blood flow interruption as a result of the reported issue.The concomitant microcatheter was a 150cm x 50cm prowler 14 microcatheter (606151fx).The procedure was completed with 3mm x 6cm cerepak freeform xtrasoft (xcr120306) using the same 150cm x 50cm prowler 14 microcatheter and the same detachment handle (the lot number provided was 102109430).The information indicated that the physician did consider the 15-minute procedure extension to be significant, ¿she was frustrated with the performance of the coil.¿ the information confirmed that the detachment handle (mdh1 / 102109430) is not available for return.
