Abstract
An endovascular graft including a stent graft and a surgical graft is provided. The stent graft can include an elongated body having a collapsed and expanded configuration and include a frame structure covered by a compression sleeve that retains the elongated body in the collapsed configuration until deployment of the stent graft. The endovascular graft can include a first cuff member sized and dimensioned to extend into a lumen of an aortic arch branch vessel when the endovascular graft is implanted in a subject. The frame structure can include a backstop sized and dimensioned to extend into the first cuff member when the endovascular graft is implanted in the subject. The surgical graft can be partially attached to the stent graft at a proximal end portion thereof.
