Fig 3. A 62-year-old man with grade III SAH from anterior communicating artery aneurysm. A, Internal carotid angiogram shows bilobated 5-mm anterior communicating artery aneurysm. B, First coil (5 x 15-mm Morpheus) forms adequate basket. C, During insertion of the second coil (2 x 8-mm helical), suddenly a coil loop protruded in the parent artery (arrow). After withdrawal of this coil in the microcatheter, the protruding loop persisted, proving this was a displaced loop of the first coil. D, Final result with persisting protrusion of the coil loop (arrow). Aggrastat infusion was started, with good clinical outcome.
