HyperForm remodeling-balloon for endovascular treatment of wide-neck intracranial aneurysms.
A new, very compliant remodeling balloon microcatheter has been developed for the treatment of difficult wide-neck intracranial aneurysms (eg, arterial bifurcation or small artery aneurysms). We report selective embolization by the use of the remodeling technique with the HyperForm balloon in 16 consecutive patients with a wide-neck intracranial aneurysm located on an arterial bifurcation or a small artery or both.
