EndoShape

EndoShape was a U.S.-based medical device company developing minimally invasive embolization and occlusion devices for peripheral vascular, non-vascular, and neurovascular applications. Its technology centered on radiopaque shape-memory biocompatible polymers designed to improve upon conventional metal-based embolization approaches. The company was particularly associated with the coil embolization and occlusion market and with its Medusa MultiCoil device. Available secondary sources indicate that EndoShape raised venture financing but does not appear to have achieved broad commercial scale, and more recent databases suggest the company is no longer active. Overall, EndoShape appears to have been an early-stage interventional radiology/device developer rather than a drug-development biotech company.
