Our Story
In 1997 MicroVention was founded and incorporated in a small facility in Southern California and in 2006, we were acquired by Terumo Corporation.
From the beginning, we sought to develop and market medical devices that would improve the treatment of diseases in small blood vessels. After developing some early concepts and prototypes, our company narrowed its focus to aneurysm therapy and developed a line of implantable, detachable neuroendovascular platinum coils.
We are a worldwide community of over 3,700 engineers, chemists, marketers, manufacturers, researchers, and innovators who share the same ethos — creating technologies that provide a meaningful improvement in patient's lives.
In 2006, we were acquired by the Japan-based Terumo Corporation. Terumo provided the framework for MicroVention to operate autonomously and grow freely. Today, we have launched over 30 products and have expanded beyond cerebral aneurysms to include treatment for ischemic stroke, carotid artery disease, and neurovascular malformations.
Our Mission
Terumo Neuro is an industry leader in the creation and commercialization of ground-breaking technologies that help neurovascular surgeons preserve and restore the brain health of their patients.
Our Community
Terumo Neuro’s headquarters is located in Alisa Viejo, California, right off the 73 Freeway in the heart of Orange County—a key business hub between Los Angeles and San Diego.
In addition, Orange County’s natural landscape provides endless opportunities for exploration. Whether it’s a bonfire at the beach or access to the local mountains, you will find countless opportunities for adventure.
