Abstract
Methods and devices are provided for the use of thin-film cuffs on endovascular grafts. A method includes forming a fenestrated thin-film Nitinol sheet, expanding the fenestrated thin-film Nitinol sheet to expand the fenestrations, and attaching the expanded thin-film Nitinol sheet to a longitudinal end of a cover for an endovascular graft to form a cuff for the endovascular graft. The method may further include implanting the endovascular graft into a blood vessel. An endovascular graft may include a cover having a proximal and distal end, a proximal thin-film mesh cuff extending from the proximal end, and a distal thin-film mesh cuff extending form the distal end.
