An embolic implant (1, 21) for parent artery occlusion, said embolic implant (1, 21) including a proximal end and a distal end, said embolic implant (1, 21) comprising: a wire frame structure including a proximal end and a distal end, said wire-frame structure comprising: a pair of opposing zigzag segments (22, 23) including a plurality of V-shaped elements defining an open end, the V-shaped elements joined at the open end of the V-shaped elements via short longitudinally aligned struts to form a central portion of the wire-frame structure, said short struts being longitudinally displaced from each other, said V-shaped elements defining proximal or distal vertices respectively pointing proximally or distally away from the center of the wire frame structure; a first plurality of serpentine longitudinally oriented struts extending from the proximally pointing vertices of the V-shaped elements, said serpentine longitudinally oriented struts being joined together near the radial center of the wire-frame structure at the proximal end of the embolic implant (1, 21); a second plurality of serpentine longitudinally oriented struts extending from the distally pointing vertices of the V-shaped elements, said serpentine longitudinally oriented struts being joined together near the radial centre of the wire-frame structure at the distal end of the embolic implant; wherein the wireframe structure is formed of a self-expanding material; a detachment joint fixed to the proximal end of the embolic implant (1, 21); and a membrane disposed over the proximal end of the embolic implant (1, 21), said membrane having a proximal facing surface, said membrane being impermeable to blood on the proximal facing surface, and extending over at least one of the zigzag segments (22, 23). a wire frame structure including a proximal end and a distal end, said wire-frame structure comprising: a pair of opposing zigzag segments (22, 23) including a plurality of V-shaped elements defining an open end, the V-shaped elements joined at the open end of the V-shaped elements via short longitudinally aligned struts to form a central portion of the wire-frame structure, said short struts being longitudinally displaced from each other, said V-shaped elements defining proximal or distal vertices respectively pointing proximally or distally away from the center of the wire frame structure; a first plurality of serpentine longitudinally oriented struts extending from the proximally pointing vertices of the V-shaped elements, said serpentine longitudinally oriented struts being joined together near the radial center of the wire-frame structure at the proximal end of the embolic implant (1, 21); a second plurality of serpentine longitudinally oriented struts extending from the distally pointing vertices of the V-shaped elements, said serpentine longitudinally oriented struts being joined together near the radial centre of the wire-frame structure at the distal end of the embolic implant; wherein the wireframe structure is formed of a self-expanding material; a pair of opposing zigzag segments (22, 23) including a plurality of V-shaped elements defining an open end, the V-shaped elements joined at the open end of the V-shaped elements via short longitudinally aligned struts to form a central portion of the wire-frame structure, said short struts being longitudinally displaced from each other, said V-shaped elements defining proximal or distal vertices respectively pointing proximally or distally away from the center of the wire frame structure; a first plurality of serpentine longitudinally oriented struts extending from the proximally pointing vertices of the V-shaped elements, said serpentine longitudinally oriented struts being joined together near the radial center of the wire-frame structure at the proximal end of the embolic implant (1, 21); a second plurality of serpentine longitudinally oriented struts extending from the distally pointing vertices of the V-shaped elements, said serpentine longitudinally oriented struts being joined together near the radial centre of the wire-frame structure at the distal end of the embolic implant; a detachment joint fixed to the proximal end of the embolic implant (1, 21); and a membrane disposed over the proximal end of the embolic implant (1, 21), said membrane having a proximal facing surface, said membrane being impermeable to blood on the proximal facing surface, and extending over at least one of the zigzag segments (22, 23).
