Abstract
Described herein is a medical device for treating a target site, the medical device including, a proximal end including a disc and a distal end including a lobe. The disc and the lobe are connected by a connecting member. The lobe includes a proximal portion defining a proximal surface of the lobe, a distal portion defining a distal surface of the lobe, and a middle portion connecting and extending between the proximal portion and the distal portion. A first transition between the proximal portion and the middle portion is curved, and a second transition between the middle portion and the distal portion is curved. The medical device also includes a plurality of stabilizing wires coupled to the lobe at a radially outer surface of the middle portion, each stabilizing wire including a hook portion extending radially outward from the at least one lobe.
