Abstract

Bifurcated endoprosthetic devices, systems and methods are disclosed herein for treating disease of human vasculature. In various embodiments, a bifurcated endoprosthesis includes a trunk portion and a plurality of legs, where the legs are constrained such that they maintain alignment with one another. In some examples, the legs and bifurcation of an endoprosthetic device may be formed by cutting a tubular graft component along a portion of less than its entire circumference in a longitudinally central region, and then folding the tubular graft component along the uncut portion to define two legs, where the uncut portion defines the bifurcation. In some such examples, the folded tubular graft component can be coupled with a tubular trunk component to form the bifurcated endoprosthetic device.
