Philosophy:
Sam O. Zaidat/ MD/ MSc/ is an Associate Professor in the department of Neurology and Neurosurgery at the Medical College of Wisconsin. Dr. Zaidat is a Neurologist with special training in endovascular neurosurgery and interventional neuroradiology. His focus and emphasis is taking care of patients with neurovascular diseases and stroke. Dr. ZaidatâÂÂs mission is to provide the best care possible for patients with cerebrovascular diseases including but not limited to stroke/ carotid artery occlusive disease/ brain aneurysms and cerebral vascular malformations. This care encompasses both prevention and treatment with endovascular and neurointerventional treatment such as aneurysm coiling/ stroke lysis/ placement of carotid or intracranial stents/ and balloon angioplasty. Dr. ZaidatâÂÂs research interests are related to endovascular outcome research/ to assess the efficacy and safety of new treatments of neurovascular diseases and clinical trial design as well as medical devices research.

Abstract:
An apparatus for treating an aneurysm in a blood vessel includes an occlusion element disposed on a wire, the occlusion element including a cover for covering a neck of an aneurysm and an inner anchoring member. The cover is configured to expand from a compressed configuration in a tube to an expanded configuration when advanced out of a distal end of the tube to cover the neck of the aneurysm. The cover includes a sphere of mesh material formed into a hemisphere including two layers of mesh that is formed by folding a top portion of the sphere into a bottom portion of the sphere. The inner anchoring member is coupled to and extends from the second surface of the cover and is configured to contact an interior surface of the aneurysm. The inner anchoring member may be a cylindrical stem extending from a central portion of the cover.

Abstract:
A vaso-occlusive system configured for embolizing an aneurysm, includes an implantable vaso-occlusive device coupled to a distal end of an elongate pusher and having a collapsed delivery configuration and an expanded, deployed configuration, wherein the vaso-occlusive device includes a proximal end configured to seat against the aneurysm adjacent the neck of the aneurysm, a distal end configured to extend in the sac and away from the neck of the aneurysm, and a central longitudinal axis, and wherein the vaso-occlusive device is configured to be releasably coupled to the distal end of the pusher at a releasable joint including either one or both of the configurations in the list consisting of: (1) the distal end of the pusher extends from the releasable joint at an angle formed with the central longitudinal axis of between about 30 degrees and about 120 degrees, and (2) the releasable joint is coupled at a location on the proximal end of the vaso-occlusive device that is radially offset from the central longitudinal axis.

An apparatus for treating an aneurysm includes an occlusion element configured to be releasably coupled to an elongate delivery shaft and including an inverted mesh tube having an outer layer and an inner layer, the outer layer transitioning to the inner layer at an inversion fold, the occlusion element configured to be delivered in a collapsed configuration through an inner lumen of a delivery catheter and further configured to expand to an expanded configuration when advanced out of the delivery catheter, wherein in the expanded configuration, at least the outer layer of the inverted mesh tube is formed into an expanded shape including a proximal section having a first transverse dimension, a distal section having a second transverse dimension, and a waist portion having a third transverse dimension, wherein the third transverse dimension is less than the first transverse dimension, and the third transverse dimension is less than the second transverse dimension, and wherein in the expanded configuration, the waist portion is configured to be deformed by an externally applied force such that a distance between the distal section and the proximal section is decreased.
A stent retriever for removing a thrombus from a blood vessel includes a body portion formed by a mesh sheet formed into a substantially cylindrical shape. The mesh sheet includes a pair of undulating wire members coupled to a connecting member, each wire member having a plurality of protrusions and a plurality of recesses. The plurality of protrusions on a first side of the mesh sheet are offset from the plurality of protrusions on a second side of the mesh sheet such that when the mesh sheet is formed into the substantially cylindrical shape, the wire members are disposed in an interlocking arrangement such that the recesses on the first side receive at least portions of the protrusions on the second side. At least one of the plurality of protrusions includes a subprotrusion formed in the wire member to increase the mesh density of the stent retriever.
