A new era in the treatment of wide necked bifurcation aneurysms : Intrasaccular flow disruption

Wide-necked bifurcation aneurysms (WNBAs) are challenging lesions to treat via both open surgical and endovascular techniques. Presently, there are 3 intrasaccular devices available to address many of the limitations of prior techniques, all of which are at different phases of approval for human use around the world. These devices include the Woven EndoBridge (WEB®) made by MicroVention, the Artisse™ Embolization Device made by Medtronic, and the Contour Neurovascular System™ made by Cerus Endovascular. Although heterogenous in design, these devices rely on the principle of using fine mesh overlying the aneurysm neck to slow blood inflow, promoting stagnation and thrombosis that ultimately leads to healing across the neck and exclusion from the circulation. While our understanding improves as long-term occlusion rates from these devices continue to be studied, the safety profiles and short-term success rates demonstrated in recent studies provide optimism for these innovative intrasaccular devices for the treatment of WNBAs. In this paper, we review these 3 intra-saccular flow disruption devices for use in WNBAs and summarize recent literature and studies of their effectiveness and safety.
