Abstract
An endoprosthesis delivery system includes a wire holder on a distal section of an elongated shaft with a plurality of wires extending distally from the wire holder and, in a secured position, terminating in a distal receiver attached to the elongated shaft distal to the wire holder. A single wire attached to the wire holder and extending proximally along the delivery system to a point easily accessible by the operator may be pulled proximally to move the wires out of the distal receiver and release the endoprosthesis.
