摘要：
A capsule assembly for an endograft introducer is disclosed. The assembly comprises: a capsule and a capsule plug. The capsule has a cavity for receiving an end of a stent graft and a capsule wall terminating in a distal end. The capsule plug comprises: a tip portion having a lead-in surface and an abutment surface and a tail portion having an external surface engagable with an inside surface of the capsule wall. The capsule is slidably movable with respect to the capsule plug from a first position in which the distal end of the capsule wall surrounds an opening into the cavity to a second position in which the distal end of the capsule wall is positioned proximally with respect to the abutment surface, whereby movement of the tip portion into the capsule is resisted by abutment between the distal end of the capsule wall and the abutment surface.
