An endoluminal stent graft deployment system useful for deployment of a limb of a branched stent graft into a blind vessel. The branched stent graft has a main body and a limb extending from the body. The branched stent graft is mounted on a deployment device which has a separate deflecting guide wire extending into the limb. The method of deploying the branched stent graft into a blind vessel in a human or animal body includes releasing the limb from the deployment device, extending the guide wire from the limb into the blind vessel, manipulating the deployment device by withdrawing the deployment device slightly to cause the limb to enter the blind vessel assisted by the guide wire and releasing the stent graft from the deployment device.

L'invention concerne un système de déploiement d'endoprothèse endoluminale par greffe, utile pour le déploiement d'une branche de cette endoprothèse (16) dans un vaisseau aveugle. L'endoprothèse comporte un corps principal (16) et une branche (19) qui s'étend depuis le corps. L'endoprothèse est montée sur un dispositif de déploiement qui comporte un fil guide déflecteur séparé (14) s'étendant dans la branche. Le procédé de déploiement dans un vaisseau aveugle de l'homme ou de l'animal comprend les étapes suivantes: libération de la branche depuis le dispositif, extension du fil guide depuis la branche dans le vaisseau, manipulation du dispositif en léger retrait pour que la branche pénètre dans le vaisseau avec l'aide du fil guide, et libération de l'endoprothèse depuis ce dispositif.
