Abstract
A system for delivering and deploying an expandable endoluminal prosthesis comprises a delivery catheter and a sheath. The delivery catheter has a proximal end and a distal end and is slidably disposed within a lumen of the sheath. An operating mechanism comprises a contractible air vessel that couples the sheath and the delivery catheter so that contraction of the air vessel causes the sheath to retract proximally over the delivery catheter. Additional aspects of the invention include a method of deploying an expandable endoluminal prosthesis.
