A collapsible medical device and associated method for grafting a lumen of selected
organs and vessels, wherein the medical device is shaped from a shape memory fabric.
The device is preferably made from a continuous tubular fabric and each end terminates
with an open end for passage there through. Each end further includes a securing
member attached to an outer perimeter of the end, wherein a substantial plane formed
by the perimeter intersects the longitudinal axis of the tubular fabric at either
an acute or obtuse angle. The fabric may be heat treated within a mold in order
to substantially set a desired shape of the device. The securing member may also
attach to the end of a guide wire or delivery catheter, thereby allowing deployment
and later retrieval after deployment of the device.
