Description

Micrus Endovascular Corporation develops, manufactures and markets implantable and disposable medical devices used in the treatment of cerebral vascular diseases. The Company’s products are used by interventional neuroradiologists, interventional neurologists and endovascularly trained neurosurgeons to treat both cerebral aneurysms responsible for hemorrhagic stroke and intracranial atherosclerosis, which may lead to ischemic stroke. Its product lines consist of endovascular systems that enable a physician to gain access to the brain in a minimally invasive manner through the vessels of the arterial system. The Company’s family of embolic coils anatomically conforms to a diversity of aneurysm shapes and sizes. It also supplies products, such as guide catheters, micro catheters, occlusion balloon catheters, guide wires and stents for the treatment of both hemorrhagic and ischemic stroke.
