Top Neurovascular Device Companies

Published: August 2024


We analyzed over 50 neurovascular device companies that are engaged in offering more than 350 neurovascular devices. In this article, discover five top neurovascular device companies and their capabilities in neurovascular devices market.


Neurovascular disorders are among the top five life-threatening conditions, accounting for approximately 15 million new cases and five million mortalities, annually. This increased incidence of neurovascular disorders can be attributed to underlying pathological conditions, such as diabetes, hypertension and obesity along with poor lifestyle. Currently, several surgical methods, such as open neurosurgery, microsurgery, craniotomy and bypass surgery are being used for the treatment of neurovascular disorders. However, these methods are proven to be less effective, owing to the fact that they are complex and time-consuming, have low success rates and delayed recovery. In order to address these problems associated with the conventional surgical methods, neurovascular devices, a minimally invasive and targeted endovascular technique, has emerged as a potential approach of treatment.

The neurovascular devices have attracted significant attention on the grounds of their success rate in improving life expectancy and healthcare outcomes. Neurovascular devices encompass intracranial stents, embolic coils, flow diverters, balloon occlusions, and accessory devices. It is worth highlighting that neurovascular device designs are flexible and are continuously improving to transform neurovascular disease treatment and enhance patient outcomes. However, in the recent past the industry has been hit by some serious device recalls, which may raise concerns about patient safety.

Roots Analysis has conducted an exhaustive study on Neurovascular Devices Market featuring the current market landscape and future opportunity for the companies engaged in offering neurovascular devices, over a span of 11 years.
