Said to be the first fully visible coil-assist-intracranial stent in the US, the LVIS EVO is equipped to offer enhanced visualisation, allowing for wall apposition confirmation, and is fully visible under fluoroscopy.

The stent’s advanced braid design and DFT wire construction contribute to an optimised opening and precise placement.

The device’s braid angle has been optimised to improve device opening along its entire length.

Additionally, the device provides controlled delivery and development, with the capability to resheath up to 80% of the device’s length, ensuring precise placement.

Since its European launch, more than 12,000 LVIS EVO units have been sold.

In the US, the device is indicated for use with neurovascular embolisation coils in patients aged 18 and above for the treatment of wide-neck saccular intracranial aneurysms.

MicroVention president and CEO Carsten Schroeder said: “Today’s announcement underscores MicroVention’s commitment to delivering groundbreaking solutions for haemorrhagic stroke treatment.

“MicroVention continues to lead the way in both hemorrhagic and ischemic stroke care. This achievement is a testament to our collaboration with leading physicians worldwide.
