ABSTRACT:
A vascular prosthesis intended principally for use as an intraluminal graft has a flexible tubular main body, a cushioning tube of a flexible, compressible, and suturable Dacron felt secured coaxially to each end of the main body, and two reinforcing rings of stainless steel secured coaxially to opposite ends of each cushioning tube in substantially imbedded state therein, the cushioning tubes at parts thereof between the rings being radially compressible upon being clamped by ligating means, which is thereby prevented from shifting. This prosthesis is particularly effective as an intraluminal graft for surgical treatment of dissecting aortic aneurysm.
