| 摘要 |
The present invention is a system, and method for endoluminal grafting of a main anatomical conduit (e.g., the aorta), various branch conduits (e.g., si de branch vessels such as the carotid, innominate, subclavian, intercostal, superior mesenteric, celiac, or renal arteries or furcation such as the iliac arteries) which emanate from the main anatomical conduit. The grafting system generally comprises a primary graft having at least one opening therein, at least one branch graft which is passable through the opening of the primary graft, and into the branch conduit(s) suc h that the proximal end of each branch graft is in substantially fluid tight sealing contact with the primary graft. Also disclosed is a specific system, a method for graftin g a bifurcated anatomical conduit (e.g., the aorta ilea bifurcation) through onl y a single access opening (puncture site or incision), and a new balloon anchoring guid e wire system. |
