DURING AN ANEURYSM COILING CASE WITH BALLOON ASSISTANCE, BARRICADE HELICAL FINISH COIL 1X3 WAS TAKEN FOR DEPLOYMENT. COIL WAS PREPARED AS PER THE IFU & INTRODUCED INTO Y-ADAPTOR FOR FLUSH. SHRINK LOCK WAS REMOVED & COIL PUSH-WIRE WAS ADVANCED TO PUSH COIL THROUGH Y-ADAPTOR INTO MICRO-CATHETER FOR DEPLOYMENT. COIL WAS DEPLOYED IN ACOM ANEURYSM; HOWEVER, IT WAS NOT SATISFACTORY, SO PHYSICIAN RETRIEVED & AGAIN ATTEMPTED DEPLOYMENT. WHILE 1.5-2 CM COIL LENGTH WAS INSIDE ANEURYSM SUDDENLY CONTROL ON COIL PUSH WIRE WAS LOST.
