As you know we are not in favour of using coils for VGM treatment. As far as delayed effects that may occur after coiling one should not be overly concerned. Coils may be extruded from the VGM into the adjacent tissues but that would unlikely result in clinical symptoms. Coils in AVF are known to recanalize in time and therefore follow up is recommended.
