A prosthesis adapted for inter-luminal placement by endovascular deployment for the treatment of vascular dissection, the prosthesis has self expanding stents connected together to define an elongate lumen wall engaging surface. At least one of the stents has a bio-compatible graft material cover to define a covered portion. The cover is adapted to close off a rupture in the wall of the lumen and the stents are adapted to provide pressure on the wall of the lumen adjacent to and extending away from the rupture.

L'invention concerne une prothèse adaptée pour le placement inter-luminal par déploiement endovasculaire concernant le traitement de la dissection vasculaire, cette prothèse possédant des stents auto-extensibles (38) reliés ensemble afin de définir une surface oblongue d'engagement de paroi luminale. Au moins un des stents comporte une revêtement constitué d'un matériau greffé biocompatible (36) afin de définir une partie couverte (25). Ce revêtement est conçu afin de fermer une rupture (7) dans la paroi luminale (6) et les stents sont adaptés à la pression exercée sur la paroi luminale, adjacente à la rupture et au delà de la rupture.
