Claim 0:
1. A vascular flow diverter, comprising:
a first tubular section defining an inner lumen;
a third tubular section positionable within the inner lumen; and
a second tubular section disposed between the first tubular section and the third tubular section,
wherein the vascular flow diverter is foldable from a delivery configuration to an implanted configuration,
wherein, in the delivery configuration, the first tubular section, the second tubular section, and the third tubular section define a single-layer cylindrical shape, and
wherein, in the implanted configuration, the second tubular section is overlapped by at least a portion of the first tubular section and the third tubular section, thereby creating a three-layer shape proximate the second tubular section,
wherein the first tubular section, the third tubular section, and the second tubular section comprise a braided mesh comprising a porosity of from approximately 80% to approximately 90%, and
wherein three-layer shape proximate the second tubular section comprises a porosity of from approximately 50% to approximately 70%.
