This is a braided tubular device used in the occlusion of various lumen or cavities in the body. In particular, it may be used to form an endovascular occlusion. Most desirably, it is braided of a majority of super-elastic alloy ribbons and therefore is both inherently non-stretching and most difficult to permanently deform. It may be deployed using an electrolytically severable joint. A radio-frequency modulated current may optionally be applied to the device after its placement in the body. The elongated device preferably is insulated along its length to optimize its occlusive activity without harm to the body.

Dispositif tubulaire tressé utilisé pour l'occlusion de diverses lumières ou cavités de l'organisme. Ce dispositif peut notamment servir à former une occlusion endovasculaire. De préférence, il est fait d'une majorité de rubans en alliage superélastique tressés, ce qui le rend à la fois inextensible par nature et fort difficile à déformer de façon permanente. Il peut être déployé à l'aide d'une articulation électrolytiquement sécable. On peut aussi appliquer un courant radioélectrique modulé au dispositif après son installation dans l'organisme. De préférence, le dispositif allongé est isolé sur toute sa longueur de façon à optimiser son activité occlusive sans faire de tort à l'organisme.
