What is it indicated for?
The Micrus Stretch-Resistant Microcoil System is intended for endovascular embolization of intracranial aneurysms that - because of their morphology, their location or the patient’s general medical condition - are considered by the treating neurosurgical team to be a) very high risk for management by traditional operative techniques or b) inoperable.
Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
