The patient was undergoing a coil embolization procedure in the hepatic artery using ruby coils and pod packing coils (podj''s).During the procedure, while attempting to advance an initial ruby coil and podj through the non-penumbra microcatheter, the physician encountered resistance and was unable to advance the coils.Therefore, the ruby coil and podj were removed and the procedure was completed using a new ruby coil and the same microcatheter.There was no report of an adverse effect to the patient.
