ABSTRACT:
A method and device used for treating an aneurysm of a patient. A framework for supporting one or more embolization elements is introduced into the patient's aneurysm. A stent, connected to the framework is introduced into a vessel leading into and communicating with the aneurysm, with the stent being compressed against the inner wall of the vessel for anchoring the framework. One or more embolization elements are introduced through the framework into the aneurysm, and in this manner the framework maintains the one or more embolization elements within the aneurysm. In the illustrative embodiment, the embolization element comprises an embolic coil, the stent comprises a helical coil, and the framework and helical coil are connected so as to be introduced into the patient simultaneously.
