Parallel endografts (also known as snorkels or chimneys) are a proposed strategy for increasing the applicability of endovascular repair to aneurysms involving branch vessels. One major disadvantage of this strategy is the imperfect nature of seal inherent to having multiple side-by-side endografts. In this article, the use of odd-shaped parallel endografts to facilitate apposition and improve seal is proposed and a technique to mold a round stent graft into an "eye" shape using balloons is described.
平行内支架移植物（也称为“通气管”或“烟囱”）是一种旨在提高血管内修复对累及分支血管的动脉瘤适用性的策略。该策略的一个主要缺点是多个并排内支架移植物固有的密封不完美性。在本文中，提出使用异形平行内支架移植物来促进贴合并改善密封，并描述了一种使用球囊将圆形支架移植物塑造成“眼睛”形状的技术。
