    IT WAS REPORTED THAT DURING AN EMBOLIZATION TREATMENT FOR A RUPTURED POSTERIOR COMMUNICATING (PCOM) ANEURYSM, THE MICROCATHETER WAS POSITIONED INSIDE THE ANEURYSM OVER A TRAXCESS WIRE. AFTER DEPLOYING A COUPLE OF COILS, RESISTANCE WAS FELT WHILE PUSHING THE HYDROSOFT COIL INSIDE THE MICROCATHETER, AND THE PHYSICIAN DECIDED TO RE-SHEATH THE COIL. AFTER PULLING BACK THE PUSHER WIRE INTO THE COIL INTRODUCER SHEATH, IT WAS OBSERVED THE COIL HAD DETACHED INSIDE THE MICROCATHETER AND ONLY THE PUSHER WIRE WAS RETRIEVED. A FEW RUNS REVEALED 90% ANEURYSM OCCLUSION, SO THE PHYSICIAN DECIDED TO WITHDRAW THE MICROCATHETER AND STOP THE PROCEDURE. THE PATIENT WAS SHIFTED TO THE ICU POST PROCEDURE AND LATER DISCHARGED.
