Abstract

An endovascular graft adapter for use in abdominal aortic aneurysms comprising a graft adapter body defining an upper graft adapter section member and a lower graft adapter section member. The upper and lower graft adapter section members respectively have a pair of cut-out sections formed through sidewalls thereof and both pairs of cut-out sections are respectively aligned with the right and left renal arteries. The upper graft adapter section member has an upper axially directed through passage extending from a proximal end to a distal end thereof and the lower graft adapter section member has a lower axially directed through passage extending from a proximal end to a distal end thereof. The upper and lower axially directed through passages are in alignment each with respect to the other.
