Zusammenfassung:	PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a medical device, conforming to the morphology of a blood vessel. SOLUTION: This system for the treatment of body passageways, in particular, vessels with vascular disease includes an endovascular graft 10 with a low profile delivery configuration and a deployed configuration in which it conforms to the morphology of the vessel or body passageway to be treated as well as various connector members 24 and stents 40. The graft 10 is made from an inflatable graft body section 13 and may be bifurcated. One or more inflatable cuffs 16 may be disposed at either end of the graft body section 13. At least one inflatable channel 22 is disposed between and in fluid communication with the inflatable cuffs 16. COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT
