BALLOON YIELDED DELIVERY SYSTEM AND ENDOVASCULAR GRAFT DESIGN FOR EASY DEPLOYMENT

摘要

An endoluminal prosthetic delivery system provides a delivery sheath possessing a yield strength capable of allowing implantation of the prosthes is with increased efficiency. An endoluminal prosthesis is inserted in a body i n a radially compressed condition, and expanded at an implantation site, where by a delivery sheath or the prosthesis itself possesses a yield strength sufficient to allow radial expansion of the prosthesis. A method of implanti ng an endoluminal prosthesis is also herein provided.
