Treatment for wide-neck bifurcation cerebral aneurysms (WNBAs) is widely performed by endovascular treatment as well as open surgical clipping. However, due to factors such as the shape and size of the aneurysms, as well as the anatomical features of surrounding branch vessels, there are some cases in which simple coiling or conventional adjunctive techniques, such as balloon-assisted or neck bridge stent-assisted coiling, are not sufficient to achieve a satisfactory cure. Against this backdrop, the device known as the Woven EndoBridge (WEB) (MicroVention, Aliso Viejo, CA, USA) was developed and can be deployed directly into the aneurysm for treatment. Over a decade has passed since its development, and it is now used in many countries worldwide. This review provides insights into the evolution of the WEB device from its development to the date of this writing, highlighting the unique features of the device and its treatment indications. Additionally, it discusses the posttreatment course, perspectives on recurrence and retreatment, imaging assessments, and potential off-label use based on numerous studies primarily conducted in Europe and the USA.
