An intraluminal grafting system having a balloon catheter assembly, a capsule catheter assembly and a capsule jacket assembly is used for deploying a graft having attachment means in the vessel of an animal body. The system contains a proximal capsule means and a distal capsule means, wherein the graft is disposed within the two capsule means and a removable sheath covers the graft and capsule means. The graft is comprised of a tubular member having superior and inferior ends, having attachment means with wall engaging members secured thereto. The balloon catheter is disposed within the capsule catheter to provide relative movement between the balloon catheter and the capsule catheter, whereby the graft can be removed from the capsule means. The balloon is inflated to firmly implant the graft and attachment means within the vessel. The graft and attachment means remain in the vessel after the intraluminal grafting system in withdrawn.
L'invention porte sur un système de greffe intraluminale comportant un ensemble cathéter à ballonnet, un ensemble cathéter à capsule et un ensemble chemise de capsule. Le système est utilisé pour déployer un greffon, comprenant des éléments de fixation, dans un vaisseau corporel. Il inclut deux éléments à capsule : un proximal et un distal. Le greffon est disposé à l'intérieur de ces deux éléments, et une gaine amovible les recouvre ainsi que le greffon. Ce dernier est composé d'un élément tubulaire comprenant des extrémités supérieure et inférieure et des éléments de fixation sur lesquels sont fixés des éléments de préhension aux parois. Le cathéter à ballonnet est placé à l'intérieur du cathéter à capsule afin de permettre un mouvement relatif entre ces derniers, mouvement au moyen duquel le greffon peut être retiré de l'élément à capsule. Le ballonnet est alors gonflé pour bien implanter dans le vaisseau le greffon et les éléments de fixation qui y restent une fois le système de greffe intraluminale retiré.
