Abstract
A vascular remodeling device and methods for its use are provided. The device can be positionable at a junction of a bifurcation having an aneurysm and that defines afferent and efferent vessels. Ends of the device can be at least partially inserted into the aneurysm or can anchor the device by being at least partially inserted into efferent vessels. The device can act as a scaffolding to inhibit dislodging of objects out of the aneurysm. The device can permit perfusion to the efferent vessels. Embolic material can be inserted in the aneurysm before, during, and/or after positioning the device.
