Provided is a stent graft that has superior prevention of endoleakage due to being resistant to creasing, and has superior prevention of graft migration as a result of promoting cell infiltration into gaps among microfibers in a dispersed state and forming an integrated structure with the cells in the landing zone of the stent. The stent graft according to the present invention is a stent graft comprising a stent graft fabric that has microfiber bundles consisting essentially of microfilaments having a filament linear density of 0.5 dtex or less, and said microfiber bundles having a total linear density of 10 to 60 dtex/120 to 3000 filaments, for the warp and/or weft, and in which the porosity of the microfiber bundles is 30% to 95%, wherein said stent graft has said stent graft fabric being located in at least 1 cm range from the central end.
1. A stent graft comprising:
a tubular stent having a central end and a peripheral end, and
a stent graft plain weave fabric covered on said tubular stent,
wherein said stent graft plain weave fabric comprises microfiber bundles as a warp and/or weft,
wherein each of said microfiber bundles consists essentially of 120 to 3000 microfilaments having a filament linear density of 0.5 dtex or less, and each of said microfiber bundles have a total linear density of 10 to 60 dtex, a porosity of 30% to 95% and 10 microcrimp bending points or more per centimeter,
wherein said stent graft plain weave fabric is located in at least 1 cm range from the central end of the tubular stent, and
wherein the weft or the warp is aligned with a longitudinal axis of the tubular stent.
2. The stent graft according to claim 1 , wherein each of said microfiber bundles consists essentially of 120 to 2000 microfilaments, and the total linear density of each of the microfiber bundles is 20 to 60 dtex.
3. The stent graft according to claim 1 , wherein each of said microfiber bundles consists essentially of 350 to 1500 microfilaments, and the total linear density of each of the microfiber bundles is 20 to 60 dtex.
4. The stent graft according to claim 1 , wherein said stent graft plain weave fabric has a thickness of 20 to 90 μm.
5. The stent graft according to claim 1 , wherein said stent graft plain weave fabric has a burst strength of 10 to 30 Kg as measured in accordance with a burst strength test in compliance with ANSI/AAMI standards.
6. The stent graft according to claim 1 , wherein said stent graft plain weave fabric has a flex-rigidity of 10 to 40 as measured according to the cantilever bending method.
7. The stent graft according to claim 1 , wherein said stent graft plain weave fabric has a water permeability of 50 to 1000 ml as measured in accordance with a water permeability test in compliance with ANSI/AAMI standards.
8. The stent graft according to claim 1 , wherein the microfilaments are composed of a material selected from the group consisting of polyester, polyamide, polyolefin and polytetrafluoroethylene.
