Abstract
This invention is an intrasaccular aneurysm occlusion device comprising: a net or mesh with a self-expanding resilient proximal portion (which is deployed close to the aneurysm neck) and an expandable flexible distal portion (which is deployed close to the aneurysm dome); and a “string of pearls” of embolic members which are inserted into the net or mesh.
