Safety and Efficacy of Aneurysm Treatment with the WEB: Results of the WEBCAST 2 Study

Abstract

WEBCAST 2 confirms the high safety and efficacy of WEB aneurysm treatment demonstrated in the WEBCAST and French Observatory studies.

The New Low-Profile WEB 17 System for Treatment of Intracranial Aneurysms: First Clinical Experiences

“…Our first results with the WEB 17 are in line with other studies using previous generations of the WEB or coils to treat intracranial aneurysms. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] In a meta-analysis by Asnafi et al, 7 15 uncontrolled series were included, totaling 565 patients with 588 aneurysms treated with the WEB, of which 127 were ruptured. Initial complete and adequate occlusion rates were 27% and 59%, respectively.…”

“…Most of the published series comprised wideneck, unruptured aneurysms. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] The first-generation WEBs required 0.027-to 0.033-inch microcatheters for delivery. In 2015, the WEB was redesigned for a 0.021-inch delivery microcatheter (WEB 21) in sizes ranging from 4 to 7 mm.…”

Endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms using the Woven EndoBridge (WEB) device: retrospective analysis of a single center experience

“…microcatheters (Sequent Medical, Aliso Viejo, CA, USA) have been introduced for the delivery of the WEB device. There are several studies evaluating the safety and efficacy of the WEB device in the treatment of intracranial aneurysms in which the treatment was found to be safe and effective [5][6][7]. Here we present our experience of WEB aneurysm embolization system in the treatment of non-ruptured and ruptured intracranial aneurysms.…”

Multiparametric MRI of intracranial aneurysms treated with the Woven EndoBridge (WEB): a case of Faraday’s cage?

“…Nineteen of 44 treated patients were excluded because of the following: in 10 patients the MRI protocol was incompletely acquired, five patients were lost for follow-up MRI at the time of data collection, and four died in the period after treatment (all initially presented with subarachnoid hemorrhage Hunt and Hess grade IV or V). Five patients from the collective evaluated have also been enrolled in the WEBCAST 2 study 15. Twenty-one patients were treated with a WEB SL and four patients received a WEB SLS.…”
