A nozzle turning apparatus includes a nozzle unit that has a nozzle for sending out a wire from a tip end thereof and a nozzle holder for holding the nozzle, the nozzle unit rotatably supporting the nozzle holder, and a nozzle-holder drive member integrally provided with the nozzle unit and moved in the nozzle unit to rotate the nozzle holder. The nozzle-holder drive member is driven to turn the nozzle from a winding state to a wire processing state after a winding operation is finished. Particularly, according to the present invention, the nozzle turning apparatus includes inner unit-drive means integrally provided with the nozzle unit in the nozzle unit, for moving the nozzle-holder drive member, and outer unit-drive means independently provided from the nozzle unit outside the nozzle unit, for driving the inner unit-drive means so as to move the nozzle-holder drive member.

Disclosed are example embodiments of an endovascular coil having a twisted figure 8 shape. The endovascular coil includes: a first loop; a second loop; and an inflection region where a portion of the first loop transitions into a portion of the second loop. The second loop is rotated about an axis parallel to the longitudinal axis of the first loop to create the twisted figure 8 shape. The twist adds more randomness and variability to the filling behavior of the endovascular coil. The added randomness and variability enables the twisted figure 8 coil to better fill the void of irregular-shaped aneurysms than other conventional embolic coils.

Systems and devices for endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms are described. Various configurations of coiled implants may be used as stenting devices or aneurysm coils. The implants include one or more filaments wound about a longitudinal axis to form a generally tubular shape. Lateral flexibility of the implants may be manipulated by, for example, adjusting a pitch between adjacent filaments, using different materials for the filaments, employing different filament cross-sectional shapes, grouping filaments into pluralities of varying flexibilities, and nesting inner coils within outer coils.
