Event or Problem Description
|
|
The patient presented with a ruptured large supraclinoid right internal carotid artery (ica) aneurysm with subarachnoid hemorrhage and mild hydrocephalus.During embolization of the aneurysm, the fist coil was placed inside the aneurysm but stretched out of the aneurysm and down the vasculature and broke off the delivery wire.Following unsuccessful attempts to retrieve the coil, a stent was placed to secure the broken stretched coil against the right ica wall.The same issue was occurred with the second coil (subject coil).The third coil was uneventfully placed; however, after the last coil deployment, thrombus formation was noted at the treated vessel.Intra-arterial integrilin was given to the patient to treat the vessel thrombosis.The patient had long term deficit with speech, cognitive and linguistic deficits requiring 24 hour supervision for safety.It is unknown if the patients condition post-procedure related to the reported devices malfunction and subsequent thrombosis or to the patients presenting condition before procedure.
