    THE ACCOUNT ALLEGES THAT DURING ACCESS FOR NEPHROSTOMY CATHETER PLACEMENT, A PUNCTURE OF THE RENAL PELVIS WAS PERFORMED WITH A MICROPUNCTURE SET. THE ACCESS PROCEDURE WAS COMPLICATED FOR THE CLINICIAN. THE MICRO-MANDREL ACCESS WIRE WAS PASSED THROUGH THE MICRONEEDLE DOWN INTO THE URETHRA. THE NEEDLE WAS THEN REMOVED, AND THE ACCOMPANYING CATHETER WAS PASSED OVER THE MANDREL/MICROWIRE. IT WAS THEN OBSERVED THAT THE SOFT PART OF THE ACCESS MICRO-WIRE TIP (DISTAL END) HAD DETACHED WITHIN THE PATIENT'S URETHRA. NOT MUCH MANIPULATION OF THE WIRE [MANDIBLE] WAS PERFORMED. THE DETACHED TIP WAS REMOVED WITH A SNARE DEVICE. NO ADDITIONAL PATIENT CONSEQUENCES TO REPORT.
