Abstract

A collapsible stent graft for aortic aneurysms includes a collapsible inner tubular member ( 26 ) and an outer layer ( 24 ) fused or adhered thereto such as to provide a spiral inflatable member ( 22 ) therebetween. The stent graft is inserted into an artery in the collapsed state and then expanded into position by introducing a liquid into the inflatable member and sealing the member. The graft is held in place by an expandable stent ( 40 ).
