IMPLANTABLE GRAFT-ASSEMBLY

摘要

An implantable graft-assembly comprising a) a radially expandable substantially tubular frame (e.g., a stent); and b) a graft having an at least partially curved periphery, such as an oval or circular graft, is disclosed. Also disclosed are methods of treating aneurysms using such graft assemblies. Also disclosed are methods of making the graft assemblies. Also disclosed are the use of sheets of materials for making the graft assemblies. Also disclosed are methods of mounting graft-assemblies having partial covers such as grafts on delivery devices such as delivery catheters or inside delivery sheaths.
