Abstract
An apparatus for repairing an aneurysm comprises a device having an inner graft tube and an inflatable outer balloon attached to an outer surface of the inner graft tube, and an inflatable deployment balloon. The inner graft tube is expandable within an artery to form a seal with the arterial wall above and/or below an aneurysm. The outer balloon is inflatable within the aneurysm with a rapidly settable substance to fill the aneurysm and support the device. The deployment balloon has an uninflated condition to fit within the inner graft tube and is inflatable within the inner graft tube to expand the inner graft tube within the artery and to maintain the inner graft tube expanded within the artery during inflation of the outer balloon.
