Zusammenfassung:Systems and methods for the intravascular treatment of clot material within a blood vessel of a human patient are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a system includes a coring element for coring and separating the clot material. The coring element can comprise a unitary structure having a first region, a second region, a third region, and a fourth region. The first region is adjacent to a proximal portion of the unitary structure and includes a first mouth configured to core and separate the clot material. The second region is distal of the first region, generally tubular, and includes a first plurality of interconnected struts. The third region is distal of the second region and includes a second mouth configured to core and separate the vascular thrombus. The fourth region is distal of the third region, generally tubular, and includes a second plurality of interconnected struts.
