Medical implantable occlusion device, and method for implantation thereof

1. A medical implantable paravalvular leakage occlusion device for occlusion of paravalvular leakage at a heart valve comprising

a braiding of at least one thread and a structural formation thereof having a collapsed and an expanded shape, said formation comprises

a proximal and a distal portion,

a longitudinal axis extending between said proximal and distal portion,

a waist of reduced cross section between said distal and proximal portion,

wherein at least one of said proximal and distal portion comprises a peripheral edge having a first and a second radius of curvature in a direction substantially perpendicular to said longitudinal axis, wherein said first radius of curvature is different from said second radius of curvature, wherein said peripheral edge is concave radially outwards in a direction substantially perpendicular to said longitudinal axis to follow the convex shape of a curvature of a heart valve, and wherein said device is rotational symmetric around said longitudinal axis; wherein said proximal portion comprises a connecting member for a delivery device, wherein ends of said at least one thread are fixed to said connecting member, and wherein said distal portion comprises returning loops of said at least one thread whereby opposite ends of said at least one thread forming said distal portion are fixed to said connecting member; and wherein said device comprises a braiding from a plurality of threads forming a closed braided distal wall at said distal portion.

2. Occlusion device according to claim 1 , wherein said peripheral edge comprises edge sections that are alternatingly concave and convex radially outwards in a direction substantially perpendicular to said longitudinal axis.

3. Occlusion device according to claim 1 , wherein said peripheral edge comprises radially opposed edge sections having substantially the same radius of curvature.

4. Occlusion device according to claim 3 , wherein first radially opposed edge sections of said peripheral edge has a radius of curvature that is larger than the radius of curvature of second radially opposed edge sections.

5. Occlusion device according to claim 1 , wherein said peripheral edge defines a generally rectangular shape of said proximal or distal portion.

6. Occlusion device according to any of claim 1 , wherein said peripheral edge comprises at least two edge sections that are concave radially outwards in a direction substantially perpendicular to said longitudinal axis.

7. Occlusion device according to any of claim 1 , wherein at least one of said proximal and distal portion is deflected towards the other portion with an angle.

8. Occlusion device according to any of claim 1 , wherein one of said proximal and distal portion has a larger diameter than the other portion, whereby an overlap between the proximal and distal portions is created.

9. Occlusion device according to claim 7 , wherein the proximal portion is deflected towards the distal portion with an angle, the distal portion is deflected towards the proximal portion with an angle, and wherein the distal portion overlaps the proximal portion in the radial direction.

10. Occlusion device according to any of claim 1 , comprising at least one a marker element for aiding in orienting said occlusion device.

11. Occlusion device according to claim 10 , wherein said at least one marker element is arranged on one of said proximal and distal portions at a position corresponding substantially to the location of said peripheral edge, and/or wherein said marker element comprises a radiopaque material.

12. Occlusion device according to any of claim 1 , comprising a connecting member attached to one of said distal and proximal portions, said connecting member being configured for connection to a delivery device in a predetermined orientation.

13. Occlusion device according to claim 1 , wherein said at least one thread, forming said waist, are twisted around said longitudinal axis between said proximal and distal portion.
