Event or Problem Description
The patient was undergoing a coil embolization procedure in the gastroduodenal artery (gda) using pod4s and pod packing coils (podjs).During the procedure, a pod4 was not forming properly in the target location and, therefore, the pod4 was removed.The physician then successfully deployed and detached a ruby coil in the target location using the same lantern delivery microcatheter (lantern).Next, the physician attempted to place a podj; however, while advancing the podj into the target location, the lantern kicked out of place.The podj was therefore removed and the physician adjusted the lantern and attempted to place another podj.However, the podj was the wrong size.While retracting to remove the podj, it unintentionally detached.The physician attempted to remove the detached podj using a snare device; however, the podj broke.The physician was able to remove part of the embolization coil, and the other part was left in the patient¿s hepatic artery.The procedure ended at this point.There was no report of an adverse effect to the patient.
