A vascular prosthesis configured to be implanted in a vessel, having substantially a T-shape, comprises a proximal tubular part forming the base of the 'T' and a distal tubular part forming the head of the “T”. The proximal tubular part has a first lumen, the distal tubular part has a second lumen, and the first and second lumens are fluidly connected to form a common lumen. The distal tubular part comprises a first end portion, a second end portion, and an intermediate portion extending axially between the first and second end portions. The first and second end portions are radially expandable. The proximal tubular part is connected to the intermediate portion and the second end portion is movable between a retracted position in which the second end portion is axially restrained and a deployed position in which the second end portion is axially deployed.

An implantable distraction device includes a tubular member oriented along a longitudinal axis, and curved first and second attachment members coupled to the tubular member and configured to be sutured within a body lumen. The second attachment member is spaced apart from the first attachment member along the tubular member. The device further includes at least one magnet coupled to the tubular member and movable relative to the tubular member. At least one of the first attachment member or the second attachment member is axially movable relative to the other to vary an axial distance between the first and second attachment members. The at least one magnet is configured such that motion of a magnetic field relative to the distraction device causes corresponding motion of the at least one magnet, and corresponding motion of one attachment member relative to the other.
