Abstract
The present disclosure is related to an occlusion device having a mesh structure. The occlusion device configured to transition between a two-dimensional configuration and a three-dimensional configuration. In the two-dimensional configuration and at rest, the occlusion device is flat or planar. In the three-dimensional configuration, the occlusion device defines an internal volume.

(canceled)
A method of deploying an occlusion device, the method comprising:
- advancing a delivery system carrying the occlusion device to a primary vessel, wherein when the occlusion device is in the delivery system, the occlusion device is in a delivery configuration in which the occlusion device is partially folded;
- releasing the occlusion device from the delivery system and into an aneurysm sac, the occlusion device comprising:
- a monolithic sheet comprising a mesh structure having porosity;
- and
- transforming the occlusion device from the delivery configuration to an implanted configuration in which the occlusion device comprises an internal volume,
- wherein a first pore size of any pore in a planar configuration is within 5 percent of a second pore size of the same pore in the delivery configuration.
