Profile: Micrus Endovascular manufactures & markets both implantable and disposable medical devices used in the treatment of cerebral vascular diseases. Our products are used by interventional neuroradiologists and neurosurgeons primarily, to treat cerebral aneurysms in the brain which are responsible for hemorrhagic stroke. Our Micrus microcoil delivery system is composed of helical & spherical configurations, connecting cable and detachment control box. Our Micrus microcoil System has a frame & fill technique and rapid detachment mechanism. The aneurysm is first framed by deploying a spherically shaped microcoil that assumes an anatomically compliant frame within the aneurysm's fragile perimeter. In aneurysms which are greater than 4 mm diameter, a second spherical coil may be deployed to strengthen the frame. The frame is then rapidly filled with helical microcoils until the aneurysm is completely occluded from the cerebral circulation.
The company was founded in 1996, has ~290 employees and is ISO 9001:2004,EN 46001 certified. NASDAQ:MEND (SEC Filings)
