    IT WAS REPORTED THAT THE COIL FRACTURED INTERNALLY. AN EMBOLD FIBERED 6X10 WAS SELECTED FOR USE. THE PHYSICIAN WAS ATTEMPTING TO EMBOLIZE A COLLATERAL VESSEL THAT ORIGINATED OFF THE BRACHIAL AND WAS SHUNTING FLOW TO THE CEPHALIC VEIN IN A DIALYSIS SHUNT IN THE UPPER RIGHT ARM. A 4F 0.038 NON-BOSTON SCIENTIFIC CATHETER AND A RENEGADE HI-FLO- MICROCATHETER WERE IN PLACE IN THE COLLATERAL VESSEL. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO PLACE AN EMBOLD FIBERED 6X10 AND REPOSITION IT, A PORTION OF THE COIL APPEARED TO NOT PULL BACK INTO THE MICROCATHETER. IT WAS PRESUMED THAT THE COIL HAD FRACTURED, AND ALTHOUGH A MAJORITY OF THE COIL STAYED IN POSITION IN THE VESSEL, WHAT DID REMAIN WAS STRETCHED. THE MICROCATHETER AND COIL PUSHER WIRE WERE REMOVED AS ONE UNIT TO FLUSH THE MICROCATHETER AND ENSURE THAT NO REMNANTS OF THE COIL REMAINED IN THE CATHETER.
