The invention provides a bifurcated endoluminal prosthetic assembly. The assembly includes a trunk body (50) including a body lumen (51) and at least one access port (53). At least one branch body (60) is positioned adjacent the access port. The branch body includes a branch lumen (61) in communication with the body lumen. The assembly further includes a ring (70) including at least one connector (65) operably attached to the branch body. The ring (70) is sized to operably engage the trunk body. The ring retains the branch body adjacent the access port. The invention further provides a method of retaining a branch body adjacent a bifurcated endoluminal prosthetic assembly. A ring operably attached to the branch body is compressed. The ring is positioned within the endoluminal prosthetic assembly. The compressed ring is expanded into operable engagement with the endoluminal prosthetic assembly. <IMAGE> |
