Abstract
A mechanical thrombectomy device includes several clot arrestors mounted on a support wire. The clot arrestors have rings of expandable frame cells. The frame cell rings include an open frame cell ring, having a gap between adjacent frame cells in the ring, and a closed frame cell ring, having no gap between adjacent frame cells. The gap allows clots to enter the clot arrestor for retrieval from a target anatomy. Other embodiments are also described and claimed.
