摘要：
A method for making an encapsulated stent includes providing first and second ePTFE layers and a stent positioned therebetween. The first ePTFE layer may be unsintered and have a node-fibril microstructure in which the fibrils are oriented perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. The second ePTFE layer may be unsintered and have a node-fibril microstructure in which the fibrils are oriented parallel to the longitudinal axis. The method includes joining the first ePTFE layer to the second ePTFE layer through openings in a wall of the stent.
