Zusammenfassung:	An endoprosthesis delivery system includes a branched endoprosthesis having a long leg and a short leg, each leg having an end, the short leg including a tail that extends beyond the end of the short leg, a constraint attached to at least a portion of the long leg prior to deployment. The constraint also retains at least a portion of the tail. The constraint is configured to release both the long leg and the tail when the branched endoprosthesis is fully deployed.
