Medtronic received information that the bleeding was confirmed under angiography after retrieving the solitaire stent from the occlusion site (m2).The physician immediately embolized the bleeding site with 3 ed coils.The thrombus was recovered and the procedure was finished.The physician noted that the solitaire device did not malfunction and that the doctor made the wrong choice in device selection from the viewpoint of the blood vessel tortuosity as well as the elderly patient.
