Abstract
A device () for removing thrombi from blood vessels, wherein the device () has an expanded state in which it is set free temporarily in the blood vessel and a compressed state in which it is introduced into and removed from the blood vessel through a microcatheter, wherein the device () has a proximal (), a middle () and a distal portion (), with the middle portion () having a substantially cylindrical structure and the proximal portion () being coupled to an insertion aid (), and the distal portion () having a substantially cylindrical basic structure, with a constriction () being arranged between the middle () and distal portion (), and the distal portion () being at least partially covered by a membrane (). The inventive device () is characterized by the fact that thrombus fragments becoming detached from the thrombus to be captured are safely retained and removed from the blood vessel.
