    DEVICE 9 OF 12. COMPLAINT SAMPLE WAS NOT RETURNED FOR EVAL AS IT IS IMPLANTED WITHIN THE PT. ACCESSORY EQUIPMENT USED DURING THIS EMBOLIZATION PROCEDURE CONSISTED OF A VISTA BRITE TIP GUIDING CATHETER MANUFACTURED BY CORDIS CORPORATION, A SL 10 MICROCATHETER, SYNCHRO 2 GUIDEWIRE, AND A SYNCHRO 14 GUIDEWIRE MANUFACTURED BY BOSTON SCIENTIFIC, A HYPERFORM OCCLUSION BALLOON SYSTEM, A SILVERSPEED 14 GUIDEWIRE, AND AN X-PEDION GUIDEWIRE MANUFACTURED BY EV3 NEUROVASCULAR. THE EMBOLIZATION PROCEDURE LASTED FOR 5 1/2 HOURS. IT IS UNLIKELY THAT THE MRI INFARCTS RESULTED FROM EMBOLI GENERATED FROM THE MICROVENTION EMBOLIZATION COILS. THIS IS BECAUSE SOME OF THE MRI INFARCT AREAS WERE SERVED BY ARTERIAL BRANCHES THAT WERE PROXIMAL (RETROGRADE) TO THE ANEURYSM IN WHICH MICROVENTION EMBOLIZATION COILS WERE DEPLOYED.
