An endoluminal prosthesis including a tubular graft having a proximal end and a distal end; a suprarenal spring stent operably connected to the proximal end, the suprarenal spring stent having suprarenal positive apices and suprarenal negative apices connected in a sinusoidal ring pattern by suprarenal struts; and a sealing spring stent operably connected to the tubular graft, the sealing spring stent having sealing positive apices, sealing negative apices, and intermediate sealing negative apices connected in a ring pattern, the sealing negative apices alternating with the intermediate sealing negative apices between adjacent sealing positive apices, the sealing positive apices being connected to the sealing negative apices by sealing struts, and the sealing positive apices being connected to the intermediate sealing negative apices by intermediate sealing struts. The suprarenal positive apices are axially aligned with the intermediate sealing negative apices.
