Abstract

The treatment of intracranial aneurysms has seen incredible advancements. Long-term occlusion of wide neck bifurcation aneurysms remains technically challenging. The WovenEndobridge (WEB) embolization device is innovative in its construction and uses. The design of the device has evolved over the last decade. Preclinical and clinical trials are ongoing and continue to inform the development of intrasaccular flow-diverting devices. The safety and efficacy of the WEB device has yielded promising clinical results that may have additional indications. This systematic-review aims to discuss the development of the WEB device and the current state of use.
