Abstract: A blood vessel implant to influence the flow of blood in the area of arteriovenous malformations. The implant has a wall of individual filaments forming a tubular braiding extending axially from the proximal to the distal end, the individual filaments crossing and forming points of intersection. The implant is deformable so that in an insertion catheter it is shaped so that its diameter is reduced and can be expanded at the implantation site adapting to the diameter of the blood vessel. The filament ends at the proximal and/or distal end of the braiding are each brought together at least in pairs and connected with each other permanently. The filament ends connect with each other and are shaped so as to be atraumatic The filaments cross at the points of intersection distally from the filament ends and are connected with each other at the proximal end of the implant.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device having an endovascular implant (1) for the introduction into blood vessels or body cavities of the human or animal body and an insertion aid (2), wherein the implant (1) and the insertion aid (2) being connected to each other via a detachment element (3) designed to be electrolytically corrodible so that after the implant (1) has been inserted into the body and a voltage has been applied an at least partial dissolution of the detachment element (3) takes place causing the implant (1) to be separated from its the insertion aid (3), with the detachment element (3) being made of a cobalt-chrome alloy containing at least 20% w/w cobalt and 10 to 40% w/w chrome.

Abstract: The invention relates to an implant (1) for blood vessels, in particular to influence the flow of blood in the area of arteriovenous malformations, said implant having a wall consisting of individual filaments (2) forming, in essence, a tubular braiding extending in axial direction from the proximal to the distal end, wherein the individual filaments (2) cross one another and form points of intersection (3), and wherein the implant (1) being deformable in such a manner that, when accommodated in an insertion catheter, it is shaped so that its diameter is reduced and can be expanded at the implantation site adapting to the diameter of the blood vessel, and wherein the filament ends at the proximal and/or distal end of the braiding are each brought together at least in pairs and connected with each other permanently, and with the filament ends connected with each other being shaped so as to be atraumatic, and wherein the filaments (2) crossing one another at the points of intersection (3) located distally from
