摘要:
A method for deploying a bifurcated endoluminal prosthesis at the junction of a main vessel and first and second branch vessels, comprising providing a deployment system containing a prosthesis having a main body section and first and second proximally extending branch sections, introducing the deployment system into the first branch vessel at a first access site, advancing the deployment system distally through at least a portion of the first branch vessel and into the main vessel, releasing the second branch section of the prosthesis by proximally retracting an outer sheath of the deployment system, expanding the main body section of the prosthesis from a radially compressed state within the deployment system to a radially expanded state within the main vessel by removing a first peelable sheath from the main branch section, and expanding the second branch section within the second branch vessel by proximally retracting a second branch release wire.
