Abstract
A support at the distal end of a bypass vein of either a synthetic material or of a saphenous vein for deployment inside an artery and the like to bypass a blockage in the artery, is described. The bypass vein is secured to a perimeter of the support with at least two protrusions extending from the support. The support and associate bypass vein are deployed inside the artery and then the support is pulled up against the artery wall by strings connected thereto to provide the bypass vein extending from the artery distal to the blockage. The other end of the bypass vein is then secured to artery proximate the occlusion to thereby establish blood flow.
