Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported that stent-assisted coiling was performed on a previously coiled anterior cerebral artery (aca) aneurysm.After implantation of several coils, the hypersoft 3d coil was placed; however, part of the coil was noted to be looping into the ipsilateral a2 artery.During an attempt to slowly remove the coil, the coil detached after approximately 10mm of the coil had been withdrawn.The pusher wire was removed and the jailed catheter with the coil inside was pulled back into the proximal aca.The coil loops that were noticed in the ipsilateral a2 were gone; however, the detached coil that was not jailed by the stent traveled to the middle cerebral artery (mca).A stent was implanted in the mca to trap the detached coil segment.There was no reported patient injury.The patient is reported to be doing well.
