Abstract

See full text

The present invention is a bifurcated modular graft for repairing body lumens. In one embodiment, the graft includes two elements, each element being fabricated from material which is flexible. The first element embodies a tubular docking section which bifurcates into left and right tubular limbs. The first element is adapted to be inserted into vasculature of a patient so that the device spans and is supported by a point of bifurcation. The second element is made from a single tubular segment and is adapted to engage the docking section of the first element. The first and second elements are sealed to each other and within the vasculature by expanding support structures.
