Abstract: A vascular graft incorporating a stent into a portion of its length. While various materials may be used for the vascular graft, the graft is preferably an ePTFE graft. The stent is preferably a self-expanding stent, although it may alternatively be a balloon expandable stent. The vascular graft preferably has a continuous inner tubular liner that extends between the opposing ends of the graft and provides a continuous luminal surface for blood contact that is uninterrupted by seams or joints. The length portion of the graft that does not include the stent has a greater wall thickness than does the portion including the stent.

Abstract: A medical device for delivering a pharmacological agent to a target region of tissue. The device includes a resilient carrier material shaped to substantially encircle the target region and a first pharmacological agent provided to the carrier material. The first pharmacological agent is to be released from the carrier material during a first period of time and introduced to the target region.
