A method for bypassing a portion of an artery between a single proximal portion and a bifurcated distal portion comprising providing a bypass prosthesis, and sealingly engaging at least one extension prosthesis in a distal portion of said bypass prosthesis, said extension prosthesis extending into a bifurcated portion of said artery.
81. A delivery method for positioning a prosthesis in an iliac artery comprising passing a guidewire through a bypass prosthesis proximally to distally and into the internal iliac artery; delivering an extension prosthesis over said guidewire distally to proximally, and into the internal iliac artery; and deploying the extension prosthesis with a trailing end of the extension prosthesis matingly engaging a distal portion of the bypass prosthesis.
