CA 2375660

A system for treating a vascular malformation has an expandable device (4), a heating device (12) for heating, and shrinking the malformation. The expandable device (4) may have deformable elements (40) which plastically deform in the expandable position. The balloon may be self-expanding or expanded with an actuating rod. A fluid, such as saline, may be introduced during heating when using RF heating. A sealant (64) may also be introduced into the expandable device to further seal the aneurysm.

L'invention porte sur un système de traitement de malformations vasculaires comportant un dispositif expansible ainsi qu'un dispositif de chauffage et rétrécissement de la malformation. Le dispositif expansible peut comporter des éléments déformables capables de déformations plastiques à l'état expansé. Le ballon peut être autoexpanseur, expansé par ballon, ou expansé par une tige de commande. On peut introduire un fluide par exemple salin pendant par le chauffage par RF, et introduire dans le dispositif expansible un élément obturant pour mieux obturer l'anévrisme.
