ABSTRACT:
A graft and stent assembly is securable to a first sidewall of a blood vessel having an arteriotomy defined therein, with the blood vessel having a flow of blood therein. The assembly includes a graft which has an orifice. The graft further has an end portion which is positionable within the blood vessel and substantially adjacent to a portion of the first sidewall of the blood-vessel which substantially surrounds the arteriotomy. The assembly further includes a stent which has a second sidewall. The stent is positionable within the blood vessel and in contact with the end portion of the graft so as to secure the end portion of the graft between the first sidewall of the blood vessel and the stent. The orifice of the graft is positioned relative to the second sidewall of the stent so that the flow of blood must pass through the second sidewall of the stent in order to advance through the orifice of the graft.
