Abstract
Various systems and methods of delivering an implant to a target location of a body vessel are disclosed. A detachment system can include a tubular body including a lumen extending therethrough and a distal tube on a distal end of the tubular body. A loop wire can be affixed at a first end to the tubular body and can include a loop opening positioned approximate a distal end of the distal tube. A pull wire can extend through the lumen. A hook wire can extend radially through a sidewall of the distal tube and into the lumen. The hook wire can be positioned around a pull wire portion and tensioned such that the pull wire portion abuts the distal tube and provides frictional resistance between the pull wire portion and the sidewall of the distal tube. The frictional resistance can be effective to inhibit premature detachment of the implant.
