Abstract
An endovascular stent graft for treatment of a blood vessel is provided. The stent is configured to be inserted into the blood vessel while in a radially-contracted configuration, and may be opened into a radially-expanded configuration once properly located within the blood vessel. The stent graft includes a main body having a proximal end and a distal end. The distal end of the main body is connected to a first leg and a second leg. A first plurality of stitching extends along a first seam path and connects the main body to the first leg, while a second plurality of stitching extends along a second seam path and connects the main body to the second leg. At least one of the first or second seam axes can be offset, in that the seam path does not extent perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the stent graft.
