GRAFT DEVICES WITH SPINES AND RELATED SYSTEMS AND METHODS

摘要

A graft device for a mammalian patient tubular conduit comprises a fiber matrix surrounding the tubular conduit and a spine comprising a first support portion and a second support portion. At least one of the first support portion or the second support portions can be constructed and arranged to rotate relative to the other to receive the tubular conduit. The first support portion can comprise a first set of projections and the second support portion can comprise a second set of projections that interdigitiate with the first set of projections. Tools for creating the spine and for applying the spine are also provided.
