Zusammenfassung:There is provided a clot retrieval device, comprising: a rotator body formed of a plurality of first longitudinal struts, wherein the first longitudinal struts are fixed only at a proximal end and a distal end, and the rotator body is in an expanded configuration when it is in a free state, and can be in a collapsed configuration when it is inserted into a catheter; and a distal body connected to the distal end of the rotator body, the distal body is in an expanded configuration when it is in a free state, and can be in a collapsed configuration when it is inserted into a catheter; wherein at least a portion of each of the first longitudinal struts makes both radial expansion and circumferential rotation during a deployment phase of the rotator body from the collapsed configuration to the expanded configuration.
