Abstract: A device for occluding a space within the body, and particularly,the device usefle as a vaso-occlusive device. In partiular, the device typically comprises a metallic core or core member, and two polymeric conjuncts, often polymeric members, of differing thrombogenicity. Typically, the core member comprises a metallic helically-wound coil; the first polymeric member and second polymeric member are fibrous materials woven into a braid. The device may be placed at the desired site within a mammal to facilitate the formation of an occlusion. The device promotes the formation of scar tissue, healing tissue, or neocapillaries in vascular occlusions made by the device.
