  • Patent number: 11160613
    Abstract: A method of generating a patient-specific prosthetic includes receiving anatomic imaging data representative of a portion of a patient's anatomy. A first digital representation of the anatomic imaging data is defined. The first digital representation of the anatomic imaging data is modified. A second digital representation of the portion of the patient's anatomy is defined based on the modifying of the first digital representation of the anatomic imaging data. A patient-specific prosthetic template of the portion of the patient's anatomy is generated based at least in part on the second digital representation of the anatomic imaging data.

  • Patent number: 11000359
    Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods for coupling a prosthetic implant to a fenestrated body are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a branch stent graft is provided. The branch stent graft can include an engagement portion for engagement with an opening in a fenestrated body, such as a vessel wall or an aortic stent graft. The engagement portion of the branch stent graft can be coupled to the fenestrated body such that the branch stent graft can move, rotate or shift relative to the fenestrated body but such that axial movement of the branch stent graft is restricted and/or prevented.

  • Patent number: 10987235
    Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods for marking and/or reinforcing fenestrations in grafts are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a radiopaque marker for a graft is provided. The marker can be secured to the graft in the area near a fenestration such that the marker is visible via radiographic imaging. The radiopaque marker can be in the form of a radiopaque thread, a radiopaque bead, a radiopaque additive, or a radiopaque adhesive. In some embodiments, the radiopaque marker is in the form of a circular disc shaped and sized to surround a fenestration, the circular disc being formed of a radiopaque material. The radiopaque marker can be configured to or can be attached to a reinforcement member configured to reinforce a fenestration such that one or more edges of the fenestration are protected and/or to aid in engagement with and sealing to a mating stent.
