ABSTRACT:
A delivery system for use with intraluminal vascular grafts, allowing for easy delivery, deployment of an intraluminal graft and withdrawal of the delivery system. The system employs a balloon catheter to deploy one end of the graft and uses a separate means to deploy the remainder of the graft. A hollow, bullet-shaped tip is used to enclose the balloon during insertion and withdrawal of the delivery system, wherein the bullet-shaped tip is axially movable to either expose or enclose the balloon.
