Preloaded wire for endoluminal device

摘要

A system may include an endoluminal prosthesis and a guide wire. The prosthesis may include a tubular body including a graft material wall, a proximal end opening, a distal end opening, and a lumen extending longitudinally therein. The prosthesis may include first and second fenestrations in the graft material wall. The first and second fenestrations may be spaced from one another circumferentially about the tubular body. The guide wire may have a first end and a second end both extending from a region proximal of the proximal end opening. The guide wire may enter the proximal end opening, exit the first fenestration, partially traverse an exterior surface of the prosthesis, enter the second fenestration, and exit the proximal end opening. No portion of the guide wire may extend distally beyond the distal end opening.

1. A system comprising:
an endoluminal prosthesis comprising a tubular body comprising a graft material wall, a proximal end opening, a distal end opening, and a lumen extending longitudinally therein; a first fenestration in the graft material wall and a second fenestration in the graft material wall, the first fenestration and the second fenestration spaced from one another circumferentially about the tubular body; and a guide wire having a first end and a second end both extending from a region proximal of the proximal end opening, the guide wire entering the proximal end opening, exiting the first fenestration, partially laterally traversing an exterior surface of the prosthesis, entering the second fenestration, and exiting the proximal end opening, no portion of the guide wire extending distally beyond the distal end opening, wherein the guide wire traverses the exterior surface of the prosthesis immediately above the first and second fenestrations.
