Abstract
A device for capturing an obstruction in a vasculature can include an expandable braid, an invertible braid, and elongated members such as tubes or wires that can be moved to cause the expandable braid to expand and the invertible braid to form a pocket facing toward the expandable braid to thereby capture the obstruction within the pocket. The expandable braid can form a cap at an open end of the pocket so that the pocket and cap define a cavity in which the obstruction can be confined. The device can also have an expandable framework between the expandable braid and the invertible braid that can engage the obstruction to further secure the obstruction between the expandable braid and invertible braid.
