A stent graft includes a main body extending along a longitudinal axis when in a preinstalled configuration prior to insertion into a body of a patient. The stent graft also includes a mobile external coupling extending away from the main body and configured to align with a secondary blood vessel within the body to provide access thereto. The main body includes a plurality of stents extending thereabout. The stents include a first bracketing stent extending about a proximal side of the mobile external coupling, and a second bracketing stent located adjacent the first bracketing stent and extending about a distal side of the mobile external coupling. The first bracketing stent includes peaks that are aligned along a first axis, and the second bracketing stent includes peaks that are aligned along a second axis that diverges from the first axis relative to a circumferential direction toward the mobile external coupling.
