Abstract
The present invention provides devices, methods and systems for the occlusion of various lumens in a body of a patient including devices and methods for enhancing tissue ingrowth, particularly endothelial tissue growth within an occlusive device. The system includes an occlusive device and a delivery device for placing the occlusive device in a body lumen. The occlusive device is generally a tubular member with a mesh member disposed thereon. The occlusive device is configured to be radially expandable along a longitudinal axis of the tubular member and implantable with a delivery catheter such that the occlusive device is in a collapsed state when positioned in the delivery catheter and in an expanded state when positioned in a lumen of a patient. The mesh member of the occlusive device is configured to promote epithelial tissue ingrowth.
