It was reported that after placement of the 5th embolization coil in an aneurysm, the coil was noted to extend beyond the confines of the aneurysm wall.After the coil was repositioned, a puff injection revealed a small amount of contrast extravasation.An occlusion balloon was inflated for 5 mins and protamine was administered.Subsequent angiography demonstrated the coil was well seated in the aneurysm and the parent vessel was widely patent.There was no further evidence of extravasation.The event did not lead to any untoward medical occurrence in the patient or result in any negative clinical outcome.
