Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The Woven EndoBridge is an intrasaccular device for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms. The first generation consisted of a high-profile double-layer braid. This review aims to evaluate the outcomes of the new generation low-profile Woven EndoBridge single layer device for intracranial aneurysm treatment. METHODS: A systematic review was conducted with Medline, Embase, and Web of Science Conference Proceedings databases. The search strategy provided 589 articles, 15 articles were included. RESULTS: Fifteen articles were identified reporting the use of Woven EndoBridge single-layer devices in 963 aneurysms, mostly wide-necked bifurcation aneurysms. Procedural aneurysm rupture was reported in 8 of 963 patients (0.83%; 95%CI 0.39-1.66%) and thromboembolic events in 54 of 963 patients (5.61%, 95CI 4.31-7.26%). Cumulative morbidity was 2.85% (27/949, 95%CI 1.95-4.12%) and mortality 0.93% (9/963, 95%CI 0.46-1.80%). The overall rate of adequate aneurysm occlusion at last follow-up was 83.3% (613/736; 95%CI 80.4-85.8%). Retreatment was reported in 38 aneurysms in eight studies with 450 aneurysms with follow-up (38/450; 8.4%, 95CI 6.2-11.4%). In 12 studies comprising 644 aneurysms with follow-up, rebleeds occurred in three patients in three studies with mean follow-up between 3.3 and 14.4 months (0.47%, 95%CI 0.09-1.43%). CONCLUSION: Woven EndoBridge single-layer is a promising new low-profile device especially for wide-neck bifurcation aneurysms, both ruptured and unruptured. No antiplatelet medication is needed which is a great advantage, especially in ruptured aneurysms. Efficacy and safety compare favorably with (stent-assisted) coiling. However, no direct comparison with other treatments is available as yet.
