ABSTRACT:
A vascular structure, including an artery, vein or vessel, with a peripheral wall defining a cavity and having a localized abnormal wall is treated by inserting a device of a hydrogel material into the cavity; and then hydrating and expanding the hydrogel material until the device occludes the localized abnormal wall, sealing it from the cavity of the vascular structure.
