Abstract: A packaging for an implant to hold the implant in a first condition. The packaging including a first packaging tube and a container, wherein the implant is movable from the container into the first tube and maintained within the first tube in a second condition, the implant having a first transverse dimension in the first condition and a second transverse dimension in the second condition, the second transverse dimension being less than the first transverse dimension.

Abstract: A device for occluding a vasculature of a patient including a micrograft having an absorbent polymeric structure with a lumen of transporting blood. The micrograft has a series of peaks and valleys formed by crimping. The occluding device is sufficiently small and flexible to be tracked on a guidewire and/or pushed through a microcatheter to a site within the vasculature of the patient. Delivery systems for delivering the micrografts are also disclosed.

Abstract: A vascular implant configured for occluding a vasculature of a patient having a biocompatible polymeric structure formed of a plurality of filaments spaced to maintain surface porosity and an inner radiopaque coil positioned within the longitudinally extending opening of the polymeric structure and attached to the polymeric structure. The polymeric structure and radiopaque coil are attached forming a joint at the distal end.

Abstract: A vascular graft configured for occluding a vasculature of a patient including a biocompatible polymeric textile structure formed of a plurality of filaments spaced to enable blood flow through spaces between the filaments. The textile structure forms a tubular body having a first longitudinally extending opening. An inner element has a proximal end and a distal end, the inner element composed of an open pitched metal coil having a second longitudinally extending opening and is positioned within the longitudinally extending opening of the textile structure.

Abstract: A deflectable endoscope including an imaging structure, an outer member having a proximal portion and a distal portion, an elongated column member extending distally from the outer member and an inner member positioned coaxial with the outer member and attached to the column member. The inner member extends distally of the outer member and has a distal tip portion. A reinforcement member is positioned over the column member to restrict axial movement of the column member such that when one of the inner member or outer member is moved with respect to the other, axial compression of the column member is restricted by the reinforcement member causing the distal tip portion of the inner member to deflect laterally.

Abstract: An implant for inducing blood stagnation in an intracranial aneurysm including an outer expandable structure for contacting a neck or wall of the intracranial aneurysm and an inner absorbent textile structure positioned within the outer structure. The inner structure includes a plurality of yarns formed from a plurality of filaments. The filaments of the yarns having spaces therebetween to induce flow of blood between the filaments of the yarn to transport blood along the yarns, and the yarns formed into a permeable structure to allow inflow of blood between the yarns and through the implant, the implant becoming saturated with blood to cause stagnation of blood and blood clotting.
