Abstract:
A vascular plug comprises a superstructure expandable from a collapsed percutaneous insertion configuration to an expanded deployment or use configuration. The superstructure incorporates a channel or passageway and a catheter extends through the channel or passageway from a proximal side at least to a distal side of the superstructure. The central channel allows for over-the wire plug delivery and a working aperture for secondary vascular interventions under flow arrest prior to final plug release. The plug includes spring-loaded mechanical elements or clotting-enhancement structure for closing the channel or passageway upon a withdrawal or removal of the catheter from the superstructure.

Claim (Index 9):
The method defined in  claim 5  wherein the inserting of said medical device into the vascular system of the patient includes disposing said medical device in a primary blood vessel to one side of a branch or secondary blood vessel communicating with said primary blood vessel, the conducting of said surgical intervention including deploying a flow-occlusion device in said primary blood vessel on a side of said branch or secondary blood vessel opposite the expanded superstructure of said medical device.
