Event or Problem Description

The patient was undergoing a coil embolization procedure using ruby coils.During the procedure, the physician was unable to advance a ruby coil through the distal tip of a non-penumbra microcatheter and, therefore, the ruby coil was removed.The same issue occurred when the physician was unable to advance another ruby coil through the distal tip of the same microcatheter and, therefore, the second ruby coil was also removed.The procedure was then completed using new ruby coils.There was no report of an adverse effect to the patient.
