A device and method of use for a partial occlusion device (POD) for matter and liquid flow control. More specifically, a device relating to the partial occlusion of blood vessels to affect the flow of blood through the blood vessels is disclosed. The POD may be formed from a mesh material and includes one or more lumens. The POD may be particularly useful in treating Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome, by reducing pulmonary blood flow to decrease the risk of pulmonary hypertension. The POD may also be used to deliver therapeutic agents to a specific site. The POD can be retrieved after placement. |
