Bare-metal intracranial vascular stents are tubular, self-expanding metal devices placed inside blood vessels in the brain. They’re primarily used to treat aneurysms by slowing blood flow into the affected area, aiding clot formation, and providing structural support for embolization coils.
These devices are typically regulated as medical implants, often requiring specialized delivery systems for placement. They’re supplied sterile and single-use, designed for permanent implantation in neurovascular procedures. Classification and supply rules vary by jurisdiction and device specifics.
