Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The present invention is directed to vascular implants and methods for fabricating the same. The implantable devices include but are not limited to stents, grafts and stent grafts. The devices may include a biomaterial, such as an extracellular matrix, coated or attached to at least a portion of the device. The devices may be constructed of a single woven wire to form at least a main lumen (14) having proximal and distal ends. In many embodiments, the devices include one or more side branch lumens (16a, 16b) interconnected with the main lumen.
