Abstract:
Implantable therapeutic devices and methods for endovascular placement of devices at a target site, such an opening at a neck of an aneurysm, are disclosed. Selected embodiments of the present technology have closures that at least partially occlude the neck of an aneurysm to stabilize embolic or coagulative treatment of the aneurysm. In one embodiment, for example, an aneurysm closure device comprises a closure structure and a supplemental stabilizer. The closure structure can have a curved portion configured to extend along a first vessel, such as a side branch of a bifurcated vessel that extends along a lateral axis. The supplemental stabilizer extends from the closure structure along a longitudinal axis transverse to the lateral axis of the first vessel. The supplemental stabilizer is configured to exert an outward force against a second vessel, such as a parent vessel, that extends transversely to the first vessel.

Abstract:
The present technology relates to aneurysm devices with additional anchoring mechanisms, and associated systems and methods. In some embodiments, the aneurysm devices are endovascularly deliverable to a site proximate an aneurysm near a parent artery with bifurcating branches. The aneurysm devices can include a closure structure (102) comprising a distal- facing aspect configured to at least partially occlude the aneurysm and a proximal-facing aspect configured to arch over lumina of the bifurcating branches. The devices further include a supplemental stabilizer (103) connected to the closure structure. The supplemental stabilizer is configured to reside in the parent artery. The closure structure includes a hinge point (175) where the closure structure folds to form a loop element configured for anchoring within at least one of the bifurcating branches.

Abstract:
The present technology relates to systems and methods for enclosing an anatomical opening, including shock absorbing aneurysm devices. In some embodiments, the systems include a closure structure comprising a distal-facing aspect configured to at least partially occlude the aneurysm and a supplemental stabilizer connected to the closure structure. The supplemental stabilizer can be configured to reside in a parent artery and press outward against a luminal wall thereof. The systems can further include a shock absorbing structure coupled to a proximal end portion of the closure structure and to a distal end portion of the supplemental stabilizer. The shock absorbing structure can inhibit movement or dislodgement of the closure structure or the supplemental stabilizer relative to the aneurysm.
Abstract:
Implantable devices for placement at a cavity or opening such as an aneurysm are disclosed. The implantable devices, in a deployed condition, have a generally inverted U-shaped profile with a curved or angled framework support structure sized and configured for placement in proximity to tissue surrounding the opening and anchoring legs extending proximally from the framework structure sized and configured to contact the wall of a neighboring lumen at opposed locations. Occlusive and semi-occlusive membranes may be associated with the framework support structure and deployed over the opening to provide exclusion of the opening and flow diversion. Proximal anchoring segments providing additional lumen wall surface area contact for the implantable device following deployment may be incorporated.
