    AS REPORTED BY A HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONAL, DURING A COIL EMBOLIZATION OF THE INTERNAL CAROTID ARTERY, THE CASHMERE COIL (SRC14030420/ P11045) FAILED TO DETACH AND THEN THERE WAS RESISTANCE DURING WITHDRAWAL AND THE COIL SEPARATED INTO TWO PIECES IN THE MICROCATHETER. THERE HAD BEEN NO RESISTANCE DURING ADVANCEMENT OF THE COIL. THE MICROCATHETER WAS REMOVED WITH THE COIL. AFTER THE FAILURE TO DETACH, THE CABLE WAS CHANGED OUT FOR ANOTHER, BUT THERE WAS STILL NO DETACHMENT. UPON REMOVING THE COIL FROM THE PATIENT, IT SEPARATED IN THE SL10 MICROCATHETER AND WAS RETRIEVED. THE SAME CABLES AND DCB WERE USED TO COMPLETE THE PROCEDURE.
