A stent delivery catheter assembly for delivering and implanting a stent at or near an area of septal perforators includes a torquing member which, in cooperation with a tracking guide wire and a positioning guide wire, facilitates torquing and rotation of the catheter and hence the position of the stent mounted thereon to accurately position and implant the stent at or near the area of septal perforators. The stent of the present invention has an elongated side aperture which is designed to be implanted next to the area of septal perforators to prevent covering of the orifices of the septal perforators.
