Abstract
Delivery systems and methods for delivering modular endovascular graft devices that allow one portion of the repair device to be deployed while maintaining control of the other portions. One system includes an elongate inner member including an anchor stop ring, the anchor stop ring including a plurality of recesses, each sized to receive a portion of the trunk portion and embedding portion of a respective hook in the delivery configuration, each embedding portion extending radially outwardly at an acute angle relative to the trunk portion in the delivery configuration. The delivery systems are simpler to use, easier to manufacture and facilitate better packing of the repair device.
