   About Micrus Endovascular Corporation

   Micrus develops, manufactures and markets implantable and
disposable medical devices for use in the treatment of cerebral
vascular diseases. Micrus products are used by interventional
neuroradiologists, interventional neurologists and neurosurgeons to
treat both cerebral aneurysms responsible for hemorrhagic stroke and
intracranial atherosclerosis, which may lead to ischemic stroke.
Hemorrhagic and ischemic stroke are both significant causes of death
and disability worldwide. The Micrus product line enables physicians
to gain access to the brain in a minimally invasive manner through the
vessels of the circulatory system. Micrus' proprietary,
three-dimensional microcoils automatically deploy within the aneurysm,
forming a scaffold that conforms to a wide diversity of aneurysm
shapes and sizes. Micrus also sells accessory devices and products
used in conjunction with its microcoils. For more information, visit
