  • Methods and apparatus for introducing tumescent fluid to body tissue
    Patent number: 9055956
    Abstract: A catheter is usable to treat a hollow anatomical structure (HAS). The catheter comprises one or more shafts which extend away from a proximal end of the catheter toward a distal end thereof. The catheter further comprises an HAS constriction energy source located at or near the distal end of the catheter. The catheter further comprises at least one radially expandable transmural fluid delivery channel located in the catheter near the HAS constriction energy source.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 10, 2013
    Date of Patent: June 16, 2015
    Assignee: Covidien LP
    Inventors: Robert Gordon McRae, Michael S. Mirizzi, Brady D. Esch, Anna Grace Prestezog, Todd Schoenberger, Halil Ibrahim Karabey, Jeff Zalewski
  • Occlusive implant and methods for hollow anatomical structure
    Patent number: 9017361
    Abstract: Apparatus and methods for treating a hollow anatomical structure comprises an implant sized for insertion into a hollow anatomical structure. The implant comprises a plurality of loose, bulked fibers. The fibers are formed from one or more bioabsorbable materials. Upon implantation, the apparatus causes a partial occlusion of the hollow anatomical structure, followed by a complete or substantially complete occlusion.
