<p>Stented grafts (11, 13, 16, 18 and 21) for coupling vascular members including implantation during coronary bypass operations. The stented graft comprises a plurality of graft link segments, each having a lumen for accommodating blood flow, and with at least one graft link segment being secured to one end of a vascular stent forming a junction between a supply lumen and a delivery lumen. The delivery lumen is arranged to be inserted into the patient's vascular system downstream from blockage in the coronary artery. In order to provide ease of access for the attachment of a second graft link segment to the stent assembly, the individual tubular element or elements defining the dual lumen assembly are axially offset, one from the other, in order to expose the free end of the stent for receiving a second graft link segment.</p> |
