Abstract
Embolic implants, delivery systems and methods of manufacture and delivery are disclosed. The subject implants are deployed in two stages. If sized properly as observed in the first stage, they are deployed to the second stage and detached. If not sized properly in/at the first stage, the implants are designed to be withdrawn and replaced with a more appropriately sized implant or another treatment option selected. Some of the implant configurations may be withdrawn even after the second stage deployment as well.
