ABSTRACT:
An intraluminal prosthesis is provided for strengthening a main lumen and a branch lumen in direct fluid communication with the main lumen. The prosthesis may comprise a tubular graft and a flexible stent. The tubular graft may include a flexible body having a wall with a fenestration. The flexible stent may include a body with at least one open space to encourage tissue prolapse. The flexible stent may be configured for intraluminal coupling to the fenestration of the tubular graft, so that the entire prosthesis may be assembled and anchored into a main lumen and a branch lumen with a minimally invasive procedure. The open space may encourage tissue prolapse, which may act to anchor the flexible stent to the branch lumen.
