Aneurysm Treatment with Woven EndoBridge-17: Angiographic and Clinical Results at 12 Months from a Retrospective, 2-Center Series.

Background And Purpose: This retrospective, 2-center study investigated the feasibility, safety, and efficacy at 12-month follow-up of the treatment of ruptured, unruptured, and recurrent intracranial aneurysms using the latest generation of the Woven EndoBridge (WEB) device, the WEB-17 system.

Materials And Methods: Aneurysms treated with WEB-17 were extracted from the databases of 2 neurovascular centers. Patients, aneurysm characteristics, complications, and clinical and anatomic results were analyzed.

Results: From February 2017 to May 2021, two hundred twelve patients with 233 aneurysms (181/233, 77.7%, unruptured-recurrent, and 52/233, 22.3%, ruptured) were included. High treatment feasibility (95.3%) was reported and was similar in ruptured aneurysms (94.2%) and unruptured-recurrent aneurysms (95.6%) ( = .71) and in typical (95.4%) and atypical (94.7%) locations ( = .70), but it was lower in aneurysms with an angle between the parent artery and main aneurysm axis of ≥45° (90.2%) compared with those with an angle of <45° (97.1%) ( = .03). Global mortality and morbidity were 1.9% and 3.8% at 1 month, respectively, and 4.4% and 1.9% at 12 months, respectively. One-month morbidity ( = .02) and mortality ( = .003) were higher in the ruptured group (10.0% and 8.0%, respectively) compared with unruptured-recurrent group (1.9% and 0.0%, respectively). Overall adequate occlusion (complete occlusion and neck remnant) was 86.3%. The percentage of adequate occlusion was higher ( = .05) in the unruptured-recurrent group (88.5%) compared with the ruptured group (77.5%).

Conclusions: The WEB-17 system showed high feasibility for ruptured and unruptured aneurysms, typical and atypical locations, and some aneurysms with an angle of ≥45°. As the most recent generation device, the WEB-17 also demonstrates high safety and good efficacy.
