  • Patent number: 8083790
    Abstract: An implantable intraluminal device includes a multilayer composite tubular device supporting one or more stents between the layer thereof. A first porous elongate tube includes an exterior surface and an interior luminal surface. A radially expandable member is disposed about the exterior surface of the first tube. A second porous elongate tube is disposed concentrically over the first tube and is secured thereto so that the radially expandable member is longitudinally immobilized therebetween.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 29, 2006
    Date of Patent: December 27, 2011

  • Publication number: 20070244539
    Abstract: An implantable microporous ePTFE tubular vascular graft exhibits long term patency, superior radial tensile strength and suture hole elongation resistance. The graft includes a first ePTFE tube and a second ePTFE tube circumferentially disposed over the first tube. The first ePTFE tube exhibits a porosity sufficient to promote cell endothelization, tissue ingrowth and healing. The second ePTFE tube exhibits enhanced radial strength in excess of the radial tensile strength of the first tube.

  • Patent number: 5843166
    Abstract: An implantable intraluminal device includes a first porous elongate tube with first and second opposed ends and an exterior surface and an interior luminal surface. A radially expandable member is disposed about the exterior surface of the first tube. A second porous elongate tube is disposed concentrically over the first tube and the radially expandable member and is secured to the first tube so that the radially expandable member is transversely mobile within a pocket formed by the securement of the first tube to the second tube.
