Abstract: A device and methods for treating an aneurysm includes a catheter capable of insertion into a body to be positioned adjacent the aneurysm, the catheter including a distal end and an operator end opposite the distal end. The catheter forms a circular pathway extending between the distal end and the operator end. A partitioner extends through the pathway of the catheter, the partitioner being rotatable within the catheter and including one or more lumens that provide an orifice from a first end of the partitioner to a second end of the partitioner. The device further includes a first coil extending through the partitioner from the first end to the second end in a first lumen and a second coil extending through the partitioner from the first end to the second end in a second lumen. The first and second lumens may be fully circumscribed by the partitioner and have first and second diameters, respectively.

Abstract: A bifurcated catheter, which can deploy a bifurcated stent constructed as a single piece into a bifurcated vessel, is disclosed. The system may have two main parts—a y-shaped catheter with a splittable seam, and a custom made stent, which can be deployed with the bifurcated catheter. The disclosed bifurcated catheter permits a physician or operator to stent a vessel at a bifurcation of the vessel.

Abstract: A self-expanding stent is disclosed, the self-expanding stent having a collapsed configuration and an expanded configuration. The self-expanding stent has three stent subunits, each including one or more longitudinally-oriented diamonds and one or more axially-oriented diamonds. The subunits are coupled together at a pivot joint. The longitudinally-oriented diamonds are configured to substantially hold their shape in both the expanded configuration of the stent and the collapsed configuration of the stent. The axially-oriented diamonds are configured to expand from the collapsed configuration to the expanded configuration. Expansion of the axially-oriented diamonds creates angulation between the stent subunits at the pivot joint. Thus, the stent can be inserted into a target location through a tubular catheter, once the stent is no longer constrained by the catheter, it will expand to an angled configuration.
