It was reported that: "the physician was treating a dural avf with optiblock coils.We had successfully delivered (10) optiblocks prior to issue.On the 11th coil, we were attempting to use a 4mmx35cm optiblock.We had to adust the coil position several times as we could not get the coil to sit exactly where we wanted.After multiple repositions, the coil prematurely detatched and we had to remove the entire coil.There was not a lot of vessel tourtosity and the only thing to note would be the handful of times we had to reposition the coil." incident report form submitted for this complaint indicates that no patient injury was sustained.Update 27feb2026 - additional information received from the issuer: "coil was at treatment location when this occurred.The physician used a 3cc syringe on the back of the micro to suction back coil until he got the coil all into micro then removed the micro catheter.".
