ABSTRACT:
A vascular occlusion device for blocking a blood vessel during surgery includes an elongated tube and a ring like structure which is adapted to fit over and around a blocked vessel. The ring like structure includes an annular balloon and a fabric sheath surrounding the balloon to protect it from overinflation. A stop cock and a syringe are operatively connected through the tube to the balloon so that the balloon can be controllably inflated by the syringe by use of the stop cock. And the degree of inflation can be maintained by closing the stop cock.
