Intracranial stent for insertion into the cerebral venous sinus system and methods of use

An intracranial stent system comprising:

• a catheter comprising a distal end, a proximal end, and a lumen extending between the distal end and the proximal end;
• a tip located at the distal end of the catheter;
• and
• a stent comprising:
• a proximal end,
• a distal end, and
• a body between the proximal end and the distal end, the body comprising a plurality of wires in a closed cell pattern,
• wherein the stent is configured for insertion into a target intracranial blood vessel of the cerebral venous sinus system, the stent being constrained within a lumen of a delivery catheter until the stent is positioned and deployed in the target intracranial blood vessel, and wherein the stent is configured to expand after deployment in a desired location in the blood vessel.
