摘要:
This is a medical device for forming an embolism within the vasculature of a patient. More particularly, it concerns an occlusion device comprising an inner core covered with a polymer. The medical device encourages cellular attachment and growth while maintaining favorable handling, deployment and visualization characteristics.

Embolic coil implant systems and methods whereby coils are mechanically detachable are disclosed. The coils include a retention element that may be releasably retained within the distal end of an implant tool. The implant tool may include a fulcrum configured to engage a first filament and prevent the release of the coil when the first filament is engaged. Alternatively, an urging means and aperture may be disposed within the sidewall of the implant tool, and a first filament may, in conjunction with the aperture and sidewall, releasably retain the coil until the first filament is withdrawn. The implant tool may also include an alignment member for aligning the first filament.

An endoprosthesis for deployment within a body passage includes a framework and a metallic film, which can circumferentially surround the framework or be surrounded by the framework. The framework and metallic film can be attached without using a third material, e.g., without sewing. The framework can define a circumferential recess along at least a portion of its length and circumference. The recess accommodates at least a portion of the metallic film therein.
摘要:
A thromboembolic removal system for treating ischemic stroke includes an elongate member and a receiver on a distal portion of the elongate member. The receiver includes structural members arranged to form a sleeve having a central lumen. A plurality of the structural members form engaging elements having apex regions that extend into the central lumen. During use of the thromboembolic removal system, the receiver is advanced over a body of thromboembolic material within a blood vessel, causing the body to be received into the central lumen, and causing the engaging elements to engage the body within the lumen.

A delivery catheter for accessing the intra-cranial vascular includes a rigid proximal section and a distal section having an outer diameter and flexibility suitable for advancement into the intra-cranial vasculature, such as the Petrous segment or the Cavernous segment of the internal carotid artery. The wall thickness and rigidity of the catheter decrease from the proximal section to the distal section, preferably in discrete segments each having reduced wall thickness and/or durometer relative to proximally adjacent sections. An intra-cranial access system includes the delivery catheter and a selection catheter insertable through the lumen of the delivery catheter. The selection catheter is shaped to facilitate selection of the target branch of the neurovasculature off the aortic arch and allows the delivery catheter to be advanced over the selection catheter into the selected branch.
