Abstract
A system for removing an obstruction from a blood vessel. The system can include a catheter with a proximal section with a proximal section lumen diameter and a distal section with a distal section lumen diameter less than the proximal section lumen diameter. The system can include a clot retrieval device with a clot engaging element. The system can include a shaft advanceable through the lumen of the catheter to the obstruction in the vessel. The shaft can include a shaft proximal section, a shaft distal section attached to the clot engaging element with a diameter less than that of the shaft proximal section and configured to cross the obstruction. The shaft proximal section diameter can be larger than the diameter of the distal section lumen diameter of the catheter, thereby inhibiting the shaft proximal section from distally advancing through the catheter distal section.
