This invention is a device for occluding an aneurysm comprising: a rotating member that is inserted into, and then rotated within, the aneurysm; and one or more fill members that are dispensed outwards from one or more openings in the rotating member toward the aneurysm walls. Coordination of the rate of rotation of the rotating member with the rate at which the one or more fill members are dispensed from the rotating member can create a densely-packed spiraling mass that fills a higher percentage of the volume of the aneurysm interior than is possible with deployment of coils in the less-directed, relatively-random manner used in the prior art.

1. A device for occluding an aneurysm comprising, a rotating member with an arcuate distal portion, wherein the distal portion is configured to be inserted into and rotated within an aneurysm sac, wherein the distal portion has a spiral shape prior to being inserted into the aneurysm sac, wherein th
1. A device for occluding an aneurysm comprising, a rotating member with an arcuate distal portion, wherein the distal portion is configured to be inserted into and rotated within an aneurysm sac, wherein the distal portion has a spiral shape prior to being inserted into the aneurysm sac, wherein the rotating member has a rotational axis, wherein the distal portion further comprises at least one hole, wherein the rotating member further comprises a severable cross-section, and wherein severing the cross-section detaches the distal portion from the rest of the rotating member; andone or more fill members that are dispensed outwards from the at least one hole in the rotating member as the rotating member rotates within the aneurysm sac, wherein the one or more fill members exit the at least one hole in a direction that is substantially perpendicular to the rotational axis of the rotating member, wherein the one or more fill members form a spiral with at least one loop which completely encircles the rotational axis of the rotating member as the rotating member rotates and dispenses the one or more fill members within the aneurysm sac, and wherein the cross-section is severed after the one or more fill members have been dispensed from the at least one hole. 2. The device in claim 1 wherein: a loop plane is defined as the plane which is perpendicular to the rotational axis of the rotating member which most closely captures the at least one loop; and wherein the loop plane intersects the rotational axis of the rotating member at a location which is proximal to the distal end of the rotating member as the rotating member rotates and dispenses the one or more fill members. 3. The device in claim 1 wherein the one or more fill members are selected from the group consisting of: longitudinal coil, wire, or other flexible metal member; longitudinal fill member with a flexible metal core and soft outer layer made from foam, sponge, polymer, or biological material; flow of liquid or gel that solidifies soon after exiting the rotating member; plongitudinal foam, sponge, polymer, or biological member; and chain or series of filler members connected by a wire, fiber, or strand. 4. A device for occluding an aneurysm comprising, a rotating member with an arcuate distal portion, wherein the distal portion is configured to be inserted into and rotated within an aneurysm sac, wherein the distal portion has a spiral shape prior to being inserted into the aneurysm sac, wherein the rotating member has a rotational axis, wherein the distal portion further comprises at least one hole, wherein the rotating member further comprises a severable cross-section, and wherein severing the cross-section detaches the distal portion from the rest of the rotating member;one or more fill members that are dispensed outwards from the at least one hole in the rotating member as the rotating member rotates within the aneurysm sac, wherein the one or more fill members exit the at least one hole in a direction that is substantially perpendicular to the rotational axis of the rotating member, wherein the one or more fill members form a spiral as the rotating member rotates and dispenses the one or more fill members within the aneurysm sac, wherein this spiral further comprises a first loop which completely encircles the rotational axis of the rotating member, wherein this spiral further comprises a second loop which completely encircles the rotational axis of the rotating member, wherein the second loop is contiguous to the first loop, wherein a first loop plane is defined as the plane which most closely captures the first loop, wherein a second loop plane is defined as the plane which most closely captures the second loop, where the first loop plane and the second loop plane are each substantially perpendicular to the rotational axis of the rotating member, and wherein the cross-section is severed after the one or more fill members have been dispensed from the at least one hole. 5. The device in claim 4 wherein the one or more fill members are selected from the group consisting of: longitudinal coil, wire, or other flexible metal member; longitudinal fill member with a flexible metal core and soft outer layer made from foam, sponge, polymer, or biological material; flow of liquid or gel that solidifies soon after exiting the rotating member; plongitudinal foam, sponge, polymer, or biological member; and chain or series of filler members connected by a wire, fiber, or strand.
