Woven EndoBridge (WEB) Width at the Aneurysm Neck Level Affects Early Angiographic Aneurysm Occlusion.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Endovascular therapy with the Woven EndoBridge (WEB) device is a safe treatment approach, whereby neoendothelialization at the neck area is a crucial element for aneurysm occlusion. We hypothesized that WEB sizing at the aneurysmal neck level has an impact on early aneurysm occlusion.

Methods

Patients with short-term follow-up digital subtraction angiography following WEB treatment of unruptured aneurysms were included. Aneurysms were categorized according to the Bicêtre Occlusion Scale Score (BOSS) as adequately (BOSS 0, 0', 1) or partially occluded (BOSS 2, 3, 1 + 3). The WEB device dimensions, including the average aneurysm diameter (AADi) and the average neck diameter (ANDi) as well as baseline patient characteristics were documented.
