20090248059 | Embolectomy Catheter - The device subject of this disclosure is a catheter conveying inflatable components that control the opening and closing of a net component. The catheter is maneuvered through the tortuous and stenotic cerebral circulatory system to an embolism. The positioning of the catheter may be guided by radio opaque markers. The inflatable component carrying the net is placed into the embolism. The balloons are inflated thereby expanding the net into the embolism. The limit of expansion is controlled by the dimensions of the net. As the net expands, fenestrations or the spacing of a wire mesh comprising the net enlarge, thereby allowing the embolism to become entrapped within the net. The balloons are deflated thereby enclosing the embolism within the net. The device can be retract into a guide catheter and withdrawn from the circulatory system. | 10-01-2009 |
20090254101 | Suturing Device for Anastomisis of Lumens - A surgical device that includes an outer hollow body and an inner hollow body. The inner hollow body is slidably disposed within said outer hollow body and the inner hollow body includes at least two hollow arms located at the distal end of the inner hollow body. An inflatable member is rotatably attached to each hollow arm of the inner hollow body. At least a pair of suture rings are rotatably coupled to the outer hollow body wherein the suture rings are in parallel to each other and are coupled to each other by a plurality of suture clips. | 10-08-2009 |
20090299326 | ENDOVASCULAR ANEURYSM TREATMENT DEVICE AND METHOD - An self-expanding frame is mounted on the distal end of a shaft. The frame is sized and configured so that it can be inserted into the cavity of an aneurysm. Suction is applied to the interior of the aneurysm through the shaft or through another catheter, and the wall of the aneurysm is collapsed onto the exterior surface of the frame. The frame is then collapsed upon further suction being applied to the interior of the aneurysm, which collapses the aneurysm wall with it. The frame folds down on itself, carrying with it the aneurysm wall. The frame is detachable from the shaft and can be left in the collapsed aneurysm. | 12-03-2009 |
20100198251 | Aneurysm Sealing Device - A device useful for treating an aneurysm having a neck comprises a first inflatable disc and a second inflatable disc, said second inflatable disc being adjacent to said first inflatable disc and in fluid communication therewith. The inflatable discs are sized and constructed such that when the inflatable discs are inflated, the aneurysm neck is engaged there between. The inflatable discs may include at least one wall that is substantially inelastic and may include an internal member limiting expansion of the inflatable disc in a direction parallel to the device axis. The inflatable discs may have an aspect ratio greater than 3. | 08-05-2010 |

20120004670 | Suturing Device for Anastomisis of Lumens - A surgical device that includes an outer hollow body and an inner hollow body. The inner hollow body is slidably disposed within said outer hollow body and the inner hollow body includes at least two hollow arms located at the distal end of the inner hollow body. An inflatable member is rotatably attached to each hollow arm of the inner hollow body. At least a pair of suture rings are rotatably coupled to the outer hollow body wherein the suture rings are in parallel to each other and are coupled to each other by a plurality of suture clips. | 01-05-2012 |
20120046676 | Aneurysm Flow Barrier - A collapsing clip including a plurality of collapsed self expanding wire frame segments is contained within the distal end of a catheter. The clip can be delivered to the neck of an aneurysm within the neurovascular system using a catheter. The collapsing clip impinges the distal and proximal framed wire segments onto the neck of the aneurysm. The framed wire segments are inter positioned so that the diamond shaped spaces between the wires are substantially blocked. The neck of the aneurysm is blocked by the distal and proximal framed wire segments forming a barrier. | 02-23-2012 |
20120253369 | ADVANCED ENDOVASCULAR CLIP AND METHOD OF USING SAME - The present disclosure provides an endovascular device for treating a defect in the vascular wall such as aneurysm by deploying a self expandable barrier around the aneurysm neck to block the blood flow to the aneurysm and method for implementing the endovascular device. The endovascular device also allows for delivery of certain swellable materials and bioactive materials, such as thrombogenic compounds, to the aneurysm to accelerate occlusion and healing of the aneurysm. | 10-04-2012 |
20130310803 | Clot Removal Device and Method of Using Same - A minimally invasive endovascular device for treating a blocked or obstructed biological lumen, such as a blood vessel fully or partially obstructed by deposits of biological matters in or non-biological matters. Certain embodiments of the present invention comprise two capture members that are configured to be placed on either side of the obstruction and enclose around the obstruction for removal. Embodiments of the present invention also provide methods for implementing an endovascular device according to aspects of the present invention. | 11-21-2013 |
