Claim:
1. An assembly for deploying an implant into an aneurysm, comprising: a tubular member having (a) a member lumen in the tubular member and (b) an opening at a distal end portion of the tubular member; a coil implant configured for placement into an aneurysm and having (a) a coil; (b) a coil lumen extending longitudinally within the coil; and (c) a securing member (i) extending within the coil lumen, (ii) coupled to the coil at a distal region of the securing member, and (iii) having an enlarged proximal portion larger than, and positioned distal to, the opening, the enlarged portion having a proximally facing surface; and an elongate member extending in the member lumen, through the opening, and coupled to the enlarged portion, the elongate member being moveable through the opening to bring the proximally facing surface of the enlarged portion into contact with the distal end portion of the tubular member; wherein proximal movement of the elongate member relative to the distal end portion results in the enlarged portion contacting the distal end portion and separating from the elongate member.
