Abstract
An endograft introducer assembly having a transfer sheath is disclosed. The assembly includes a pusher assembly comprising a guide wire catheter, a tip mounted to a proximal end of the guide wire catheter, a stent graft receiving portion distal of the tip and a pusher distal of the receiving portion. The assembly further includes a transfer sheath extending distally over the stent graft receiving portion from a proximal position adjacent to the tip, the transfer sheath having a first length over the stent graft receiving portion; and a stopper disposed co-axially around the transfer sheath. The stopper has a proximal end terminating in a stopper surface and a distal portion, the distal portion removably engaged with the transfer sheath so as to prevent relative axial movement between the stopper and the transfer sheath in at least one direction.
