1. A vascular device for use during an interventional procedure, comprising:
- a stent structure having a collapsed configuration, an expanded configuration, a proximal end, and a distal end; and
a delivery member for delivering the stent structure to a treatment site within a vasculature,wherein the proximal end of the stent structure is fixed to the delivery member when the stent structure is in the expanded configuration at the treatment site,the proximal end of the stent structure includes a single inlet opening,the stent structure comprises a longitudinally extending tubular shaped section of a substantially constant outside diameter,the stent structure comprises a section tapering distally radially inwardly at its distal end, andwhen the stent structure is in the expanded configuration, only the proximal end of the stent structure is fixed to the delivery member.

17. A vascular device for use during an interventional procedure, comprising:
-
a flexible tube defined by a mesh structure and having a proximal end and a distal end, the tube having a first configuration comprising a compressed diameter that permits intraluminal delivery of the tube through a vasculature and a second configuration comprising an expanded diameter for engaging the wall a vessel lumen at a treatment site; a delivery member connected to the proximal end of the tube; and a connecting member, the connecting member attaching the tube to the delivery member, wherein the tube remains connected to the delivery member when the tube is in the second configuration, the proximal end of the tube defines a single inlet opening, the connecting member extends from a portion of the inlet opening to the delivery member, and when the tube is in the second configuration, only the proximal end of the tube is fixed to the delivery member. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28)

29. A vascular device for use during an interventional procedure, comprising:
-
a stent structure having a collapsed configuration, an expanded configuration, a proximal end, and a distal end; and a delivery member for delivering the stent structure to a treatment site within a vasculature, wherein the proximal end of the stent structure is fixed to the delivery member when the stent structure is in the expanded configuration at the treatment site, the proximal end of the stent structure includes a single inlet opening, the stent structure comprises a longitudinally extending tubular shaped section of a substantially constant outside diameter from the inlet opening to a position near the distal end of the stent structure, the tubular shaped section of the stent structure is free of structural elements extending from a surface the tubular shaped section towards an interior portion of the tubular shaped section, and when the stent structure is in the expanded configuration, only the proximal end of the stent structure is fixed to the delivery member. - View Dependent Claims (30, 31, 32, 33)
