Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness, long-term safety and explore the safety and efficacy factors WILLIS™ intracranial stent graft system in clinical applications.

Detailed description

Intracranial aneurysm is a cerebrovascular disorder in which weakness in the wall of a cerebral artery or vein causes a localized dilation or ballooning of the blood vessel.WILLIS® intracranial stent graft system is indicated for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms. This study is a multi-center, prospective registration study. Recruiting 100 specific patients to undergo a treatment with the WILLIS intracranial stent graft system, while giving the anti-platelet aggregation drugs and other medical therapy. Patients enrolled will undergo a one-year follow-up.

Interventions

DEVICEWILLIS

WILLIS® intracranial stent graft system is composed of the stent, delivery system, cobalt-based alloy stent and PTFE graft. It can effectively shunt the blood flow and keep it off of the aneurysm wall.
