Patent ID: 8728112

Claim:
A vascular occlusion device for occluding a body vessel, the device comprising: a hub having proximal and distal ends; a plurality of anchoring struts, each anchoring strut having a first end and a second end, the first ends being connected together at the hub, each of the second ends extending freely from the first end to engage the body vessel for anchoring the device therein; a central strut attached to the proximal end of the hub; proximal and distal members coupled to the central strut, wherein the proximal and distal members are proximal and distal discs respectively; and an extracellular matrix material disposed about the central strut between the proximal and distal members, wherein the extracellular matrix material has a first thickness in a compressed delivery state for delivering the extracellular matrix material to a target location and a second thickness in an expanded deployed state for occluding the body vessel, wherein the extracellular matrix material is configured to automatically expand from the first thickness of the compressed delivery state to the second thickness of the expanded deployed state.
