Abstract
The techniques of this disclosure generally relate to a variable permeability layered prosthesis including an impermeable outer layer and a permeable inner layer. The impermeable outer layer is well suited to seal a dissection opening of a dissection. The permeable inner layer allows fluid to enter into a dead space between the impermeable outer layer and the permeable inner layer. The fluid in the dead space coagulates in the dead space providing a media for tissue growth into the prosthesis. The ability of tissue to integrate into the prosthesis provides biological fixation of the prosthesis in vessels and prevents endoleaks and migration of the prosthesis.
