The present invention embodies an endovascular graft having an attachment frame connection mechanism that allows placement of the main body component in vasculature in combination with limb components. Various limb component-to-main body component attachment mechanisms are provided which ensure a reliable bond while facilitating a smaller delivery profile.

Modular graft component junctions

An endovascular prosthesis containing radiopaque markers for identifying the position of the prosthesis and for detecting any twisting of the prosthesis inside a corporeal vessel. The prosthesis may be a graft having a graft body with a wall defining a lumen. A plurality of radiopaque markers are disposed on the wall of the graft, with each individual marker appearing identical under fluoroscopy regardless of the grafts orientation inside the corporeal vessel, but the relative positions of individual markers relative to each other in a set indicate the prosthesis position and orientation.

Radiopaque markers for endovascular graft alignment

An endovascular grafting device having a main body component and limb components. The device is contemplated to be assembled in-situ for the purpose of treating vascular defects or conditions.

Endovascular grafting device

The present invention embodies an endovascular graft having various frame-to-main body component attachment mechanisms which provide a secured bond, reduced graft material wear, and reduced delivery profile.

Endovascular graft device and methods for attaching components thereof

The present invention embodies delivery systems and methods of packing an initial endovascular graft components for delivery that achieve a smaller delivery profile and reduce redundancy. Delivery systems and methods for packing the initial endovascular graft components for delivery facilitate a reduced delivery profile while allowing reliable positioning of the components before deployment.

Staged endovascular graft delivery system

The present invention embodies an endovascular graft having various frame-to-main body component attachment mechanisms which provide a secure bond, reduced graft material wear, and reduced delivery profile.

A endovascular graft having sensing devices attached thereto to facilitate measurement of pertinent parameters within the vasculature into which the graft is implanted. Power sources and transmitters may be attached to the graft to facilitate transmission of measurements to a receiving device outside the patient's body. The sensing devices, may be electrically passive or integrated devices with measurement and transmission capability. The sensing devices may be attached to specific locations on the graft material or attached to the lumen, thereby providing pertinent parameters from critical points inside the vasculature, or may be dispersed over the surface of the graft material or within the lumen to provide a profile of pertinent parameters. The sensing devices may be attached to the graft material with one suture using a running stitch to minimize graft bulk and may be coated with a material to inhibit or control tissue growth. A bio-reabsorbable or hard wire tether or suture may be employed to attach devices to one or more graft components.
