Abstract: The stent graft includes a main body and an external coupling. The main body extends along a longitudinal axis and includes proximal and distal ends. The external coupling extends away from the main body and defines an opening having a center. The main body includes a first bracketing stent extending about a proximal side of the external coupling. The first bracketing stent includes first and second peaks. The first peak is circumferentially aligned with the center of the external coupling. The first peak is proximal the second peak about the main body along the longitudinal axis.

Abstract: A stent graft includes a main body extending along a longitudinal axis when in a preinstalled configuration prior to insertion into a body of a patient. The stent graft also includes a mobile external coupling extending away from the main body and configured to align with a secondary blood vessel within the body to provide access thereto. The main body includes a plurality of stents extending thereabout. The stents include a first bracketing stent extending about a proximal side of the mobile external coupling, and a second bracketing stent located adjacent the first bracketing stent and extending about a distal side of the mobile external coupling. The first bracketing stent includes peaks that are aligned along a first axis, and the second bracketing stent includes peaks that are aligned along a second axis that diverges from the first axis relative to a circumferential direction toward the mobile external coupling.
