| Neuroform™ Microdelivery
Stent System
Although aneurysm coils play a vital role in the treatment
of brain aneurysms, approximately 25 percent of patients can’t
be treated with coils alone. The Neuroform™ product, an ultra-thin,
self-expanding nitinol stent, is the first micro-catheter delivered
neurovascular stent. As such, it is specially designed to bridge
the opening of “wide neck” aneurysms to keep coils in
place once they are inserted.
The Neuroform stent gained FDA approval as a Humanitarian
Use Device (HUD) in 2002, and is currently available in Europe and
other international markets.
