It was reported that: "dr (b)(6) (inr) decided to do a stent assisted coiling case of acom aneurysm with our coils.He used pconus device in this case.First two coils he deployed were barricade complex frame 11-7 and 8-27 and this was the third coil which he was deploying.It went well in the micro catheter but in side the aneurysm it was not behaving well so physician decided to reposition it.While taking out the coil from aneurysm, it got detached and almost more than half of the coil was outside the aneurysm.Further, he retrieved this coil with the help of snare and deployed microplex coils.He was surprised to see that without detachment how the coil can get detached.Finally he completed the procedure.".

To whom it may concern: investigation confirmed that the implant had fully detached from the delivery system.The implant coil was stretched to wire and broken in two pieces, the most stretched damage appeared at the proximal end of the coil, the remainder distal end of the coil condition was intact.The delivery pusher was not returned for further evaluation.Based on the provided information the reported complaint and investigation finding.The possible root cause may be due to the tensile overload; however, without the ability to investigate the delivery pusher, there is insufficient information to conclusively determine the root cause.Detachment-related issues (including premature detachment) are well-understood failures for implantable coils.These types of failures are not infrequent nor unique to balt usa products, having an established history of occurrence across similar marketed devices for many years.Currently premature detachment on all lots is below threshold.Comprehensive analysis of this failure mode has remained subject to monitoring for any unacceptable increase in trend.Review of the lot history records for the reported lots did not reveal any in-process or lot-specific issue that could account for the observation.No additional complaints against lot number 121417a has been made for the same issue.Comprehensive analysis of this failure mode has remained subject to monitoring for any unacceptable increase in trend.The submission of this report or related information to the fda, and its release by fda, does not reflect a conclusion by the party submitting this report of the fda that the report or related information is an admission that the manufacturer, their employees, or the device caused or contributed to the reportable event.
