ABSTRACT:
A generally tubular prosthetic device is provided which includes a first stent having a central axis and a flow passage defined therethrough and being sized for insertion into a target lumen. A first, proximal member extends from a sidewall of proximal stent and is in fluid communication with the flow passage. A second, distal stent is provided having central axis and a flow passage defined therethrough and being sized for insertion into the target lumen. A second, distal member extends from a sidewall of the distal stent and is in fluid communication with the flow passage of the distal stent. The prosthetic device also includes a generally tubular central member that interconnects and fluidly couples the first and second stents via the proximal and distal members. A method of employing the device is also disclosed.
