Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A stent graft is disclosed and can include a stent and a graft engaged with the stent. The graft can include an inner surface and an outer surface. Further, at least one of the inner surface and the outer surface can include a plurality of protrusions as viewed in cross section extending through a longitudinal axis.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A stent graft, comprising: a stent, including a plurality of struts arranged to establish a plurality of rings along a longitudinal axis of the stent graft, wherein adjacent rings are directly connected; and a graft engaged with the stent, wherein: the graft includes an inner graft layer and an outer graft layer, at least one of the inner graft layer and the outer graft layer includes a plurality of protrusions as viewed in cross section extending through the longitudinal axis, the plurality of protrusions form a plurality of closed loops, the directly connected adjacent rings bisected by at least one closed loop, the plurality of protrusions are formed by at least one bead wound around the inner graft layer, the outer graft layer, or a combination thereof; and the at least one bead is sintered to the inner graft layer, the outer graft layer, or a combination thereof.
