Feasibility Study of the LVIS™ (Low-profile Visualized Intraluminal Support)Device — LVIS  

Intracranial Aneurysms Clinical Trial

Official title: A Feasibility Study of the MicroVention,Inc.(LVIS™) Neurovascular Self-Expanding Retrievable Stent System in the Treatment of Wide-Necked Intracranial Artery Aneurysms

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and probable benefit of the Low-profile Visualized Intraluminal Support (LVIS™ and LVIS™ Jr.)devices from MicroVention, Inc. when used to facilitate endovascular coiling of unruptured wide-neck intracranial aneurysms with bare platinum embolization coils.

Clinical Trial Description

With the stent-assisted technique to treat wide neck intracranial aneurysms, the neurovascular stent is placed across the aneurysm neck, to act as a bridge to prevent coils from protruding into the parent artery. Stenting may allow to more safely achieve a higher packing density of coils. These effects may improve the rates of complete aneurysm occlusion and enhance the durability of the coiling treatment.The LVIS™ device manufactured by MicroVention, Inc. has a braided design which may provide superior conformability and parent artery apposition, as well as a more reliable continuous and uniform neck bridging than other neurovascular stents. ;
