Event or Problem Description
The patient was undergoing a coil embolization procedure in the shunt route (between the splenic vein and the renal vein) using penumbra coils 400 (pc400s), a px slim delivery microcatheter (px slim) and penumbra coil detachment handles (handles).During the procedure, while attempting to advance a pc400 through the px slim, the physician experienced resistance after advancing the pc400 30 centimeters into the px slim; therefore, it was removed.The physician then flushed the px slim and re-attempted to advance the pc400; however, resistance was encountered again and therefore, the coil was removed.After that, the physician opened a new pc400, advanced it into the target vessel and attempted to detach it using a handle; however, the pc400 failed to detach.Therefore, the physician manually broke the pc400 pusher assembly and manually detached the coil.The procedure was completed using additional pc400s, the same px slim and a new handle without further issues.There was no report of an adverse effect to the patient.
