1. A treatment system comprising:
a conduit comprising:
an electrically conductive body comprising a proximal portion, a distal portion, and a detachment zone between the proximal portion and the distal portion, wherein the detachment zone includes a first sidewall having one or more apertures formed therein such that the detachment zone is configured to be severed in response to a flow of an electrical current therethrough, thereby causing separation of the proximal portion and the distal portion;
a first lumen defined by the first sidewall and in communication with the one or more apertures; and
a distal opening in communication with the first lumen;
an expandable occlusive member having a proximal hub coupled to the conduit distal portion, the occlusive member configured to be deployed within an aneurysm; and
an electrically insulative liner disposed within the first lumen of the conduit, the liner having a second sidewall that is continuous along the detachment zone such that the one or more apertures are covered by the liner, the liner defining a second lumen configured to pass an embolic element therethrough and out of the distal opening of the conduit.
