A graft and method for implantation of the graft in a blood vessel of a patient is described. The graft may have proximal and distal ends, with an expandable mesh positioned adjacent the distal end that is configured to transition from an insertion diameter relative to a deployed diameter. The graft may also include a cover configured to extend at least from the proximal end to the distal end and a suture cuff positioned adjacent the distal end. During deployment, the distal end of the graft may be inserted through an opening in a wall of the blood vessel or an end of the vascular graft. The distal end of the graft is expanded from the insertion diameter to the deployed diameter to secure the graft within the blood vessel or the vascular graft. The suture cuff of the graft is sutured to the blood vessel or the vascular graft.
