In order to bypass a restriction in a parent vessel, a first site in a branch vessel branching from the aorta is accessed intraluminally. An occlusion is formed at the first site, and the aperture is formed in the branching vessel, intraluminally, proximal of the first site. An aperture is formed in the parent vessel distal of the restriction, and a lumen is formed which communicates between the branching vessel proximal of the occlusion, and the parent vessel distal of the restriction. |
