Zusammenfassung:An implantable device having an expandable element, such as a balloon, exerting a radially-outwardly directed anti-migration force to hold the implantable device in place. The implantable device occlusion device may be an occlusion device configured to be inserted through a body passage. The implantable device may include a first component and a second component expandable within a lumen of the first component to exert an antimigration force against the first component. The first component may be an expandable stent coated to resist tissue ingrowth, and the second component may be an expandable balloon configured to exert an anti-migration force against the expandable stent.
