Embodiment Construction

[0124] Detailed introduction of the invention

[0125] This detailed introduction discloses various catheter-based devices, systems, and methods for delivering and implanting radially expandable prostheses into body lumens. For example, aspects of the invention find application in procedures requiring repair of diseased and / or damaged sites of hollow body organs and / or blood vessels. Devices, systems, and methods embodying features of the present invention are also suitable for use with systems and surgical techniques that are not necessarily catheter-based.

[0126] The present devices, systems and methods are particularly well suited for the treatment of aortic aneurysms primarily in the abdominal region, usually in the infrarenal region between the renal and aortic bifurcations, and also in the thoracic region between the aortic arch and the renal arteries of aneurysms. For this reason, the present devices, systems and methods are presented herein. However, it should sti...

Abstract

Devices, systems, and methods use a catheter device sized and configured for introduction to a targeted site in a hollow body organ or blood vessel. The catheter device includes a first release mechanisms coupled to the prosthesis to secure at least one region of the prosthesis to the catheter shaft, and a second release mechanism coupled to the prosthesis in cooperation with the first release mechanism to prevent full release of the at least one region of the at least one region of the prosthesis from the catheter shaft after actuation of the first release mechanism. A fastening device sized and configured is for introduction to the targeted site in the hollow body organ or blood vessel occupied by the catheter device, includes an actuator to deploy a fastener in the at least one region of the prosthesis after actuation of the first release mechanism and before actuation of the second release mechanism.
