Abstract
A delivery catheter system includes a catheter and an integrated embolic filter that is deployable prior to the delivery of a prosthesis in a patient's vasculature and retrievable after delivery of said prosthesis. The embolic filter is moveable from a collapsed state, in which the embolic filter is retained within the catheter body, to a deployed state in which the embolic filter extends from the catheter body and, in use, into contact with an inner wall of a patient's vasculature.
