ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides methods for treating conditions such as abdominal aortic aneurysms and the like which involve the direct placement of a bifurcated graft in the afflicted area. The surgical procedures can be performed proximally, from above the junction of the abdominal aorta and the renal arteries, or distally through the iliac arteries. Particularly preferred methods include a plurality of entry points made both above and below the afflicted area.
