A multi-sided intraluminal medical device having a self-expanding frame and a pair of guide bars located on opposite ends of the frame and adapted to enable the frame to be retracted for delivery or retrieval from either end is provided. The intraluminal device may further include a partial or full covering that is circumferentially attached to the frame. Such a medical device may be used as a stent to maintain an open lumen in a vessel (e.g., a vein, artery, or duct), as a valve, or as an occlusion device. |
