Aneurysmal recurrence and retreatment modalities after Woven EndoBridge (WEB) device implantation: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Interventional neuroradiology : journal of peritherapeutic neuroradiology, surgical procedures and related neurosciences, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
BackgroundThe Woven EndoBridge (WEB) device is used to treat wide-neck bifurcation aneurysms (WNBAs). We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to determine the retreatment rate strategies following aneurysmal recurrence of WEB device treated WNBAs.MethodsThis study is reported following the PRISMA 2020 guidelines. We conducted a systematic review of the literature using PubMed, Scopus, Embase, and Web of Science. Data were pooled using a random-effects model. We calculated pooled prevalence and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CI).ResultsWe included 11 studies. The overall retreatment rate was 171/1875 aneurysms (10.3%; 95% CI = 8.3-12.9). Stent-assisted coiling was used to treat 59 aneurysms (36.7%; 95% CI = 26.4-48.5), and flow diverters were used to treat 44 aneurysms (18.7%; 95% CI = 9.9-32.5). Following retreatment, the complete occlusion rate was 57/91 aneurysms (62.8%; 95% CI = 48.2-75.3) and the adequate occlusion rate was 24/91 aneurysms (26.4%; 18.4%-36.4%). The most common aneurysmal recurrence site was the anterior communicating artery (44/136 aneurysms, 32.4%; 95% CI = 25.0-40.7).ConclusionsRoughly 10% of WNBAs initially treated with the WEB device will undergo retreatment. Retreatment is an effective strategy for WEB-treated aneurysms, with high rates of adequate and complete occlusion. Future studies should work to identify risk factors for aneurysmal recurrence.
