Additional Manufacturer Narrative

No injury was associated with the reported incident and the physician reported that the observed migration was not clinically significant; the high blood flow of the splenic artery and incorrect vessel sizing may have contributed to the migration.It was also reported that the physician used two (2) additional coils after deploying the lobo-9 device to assist in slowing down the blood flow; it was noted that the patient was on blood thinning medication.The device remains implanted in the patient and was not returned for evaluation; a device history record review revealed that there were no deviations in the manufacturing process that could have contributed to the reported issue and that the device was released within specifications and acceptable parameters.
