Abstract
The invention relates to a vascular prosthesis system for inserting into and for supporting a blood vessel of a patient. The vascular prosthesis system comprises (i) a stent graft element comprising a prosthesis material, and (ii) a stent element free of prosthesis material. Furthermore, a strip-like prosthesis material segment is provided, by means of which the stent graft element and the stent element are connected to each other, in such a way that the strip-like prosthesis material segment forms a prosthesis material bridge.
