Additional Manufacturer Narrative

The device history record review confirms that the device met all material, assembly and performance specifications.Visual inspection of the device revealed that the delivery wire was broken/fractured and the main coil was kinked.Functional testing could not be performed due to the damaged condition of the returned coil.Device analysis revealed that the main coil had not detached as originally reported, but the coil delivery wire was broken.Based on the information currently available, it is probable that some procedural factors encountered during the procedure limited the performance of the coil contributing to the reported and observed damages.Therefore, an assignable cause of component failure has been assigned to this investigation.
