A vascular device comprising a plurality of vessel engaging members and a valve. The device is movable from a collapsed insertion position having a first diameter to a second expanded position having a second diameter larger than the first diameter. The plurality of vessel engaging members extend outwardly from the device for securely engaging the internal wall of a vessel upon expansion of the device to the second expanded position, wherein the vessel engaging members pull the internal wall of the vessel radially inwardly upon movement of the device from the second expanded position toward a first expanded position having a third diameter greater than the first diameter and less than the second diameter. In the first expanded position the valve is movable between an open position to allow blood flow therethrough to a closed position to prevent blood flow.

L'invention concerne un dispositif vasculaire constitué d'une pluralité d'éléments de contact avec le vaisseau et d'une soupape. Le dispositif peut passer d'une position d'insertion affaissée ayant un premier diamètre à une seconde position déployée ayant un second diamètre supérieur au premier. La pluralité d'éléments de contact avec le vaisseau sont orientés vers l'extérieur du dispositif de façon qu'ils entrent en contact avec la paroi interne d'un vaisseau lors du passage du dispositif à la seconde position déployée, en tirant la paroi interne du vaisseau radialement vers l'intérieur lorsque le dispositif passe de la seconde position déployée à une première position déployée ayant un troisième diamètre supérieur à celui du premier diamètre et inférieur à celui du second diamètre. Dans la première position déployée, la soupape passe d'une position ouverte qui laisse le sang circuler à une position fermée qui stoppe l'écoulement sanguin.
