A vascular graft prosthesis includes a tubular conduit for subcutaneous implantation. The tubular conduit has a first end for attachment to a vein, a second end for attachment to an artery, and an enlarged portion between the first and second ends. The enlarged portion has a diameter greater than the diameter of a remaining portion of said tubular conduit. The enlarged portion is positioned proximate the first end and spaced from the first end a distance substantially equivalent to a length of the enlarged portion.
