VASCULAR GRAFT

A graft (8) having a tubular body (12) having a first end (16) and a second end (18), and first and second compressible chambers (22a, 22d). The tubular body has an outer sidewall (44) and an inner sidewall (42). A lumen (20) extends between the first end and the second end. The first compressible c...

Zusammenfassung:A graft (8) having a tubular body (12) having a first end (16) and a second end (18), and first and second compressible chambers (22a, 22d). The tubular body has an outer sidewall (44) and an inner sidewall (42). A lumen (20) extends between the first end and the second end. The first compressible chamber (22a) is adjacent the first end of the tubular body and disposed between the inner side wall and the outer side wall. The second compressible chamber (22d) is adjacent the second end of the tubular body and disposed between the inner side wall and the outer side wall. The first chamber adjacent the first end of the tubular body is less compressible than the second chamber adjacent the second end of the tubular body such that the first end of the tubular body substantially matches a first compliance and the second end of the tubular body substantially matches a second compliance, the second compliance being greater than the first compliance.
