It was reported that during the coil embolization procedure, the part of the coil (subject device) was stuck in the tip of the microcatheter after detachment.Therefore, the physician attempted to use the guidewire to push the coil out from the tip of the microcatheter, but it did not work.Finally, the physician removed the microcatheter with inflating the balloon catheter at the neck of the aneurysm.However, part of the coil was protruded to the parent vessel.So, the physician fixed the hanging coil to the vessel wall with the stent.The procedure was completed successfully.
