Abstract

Methods and apparatus for deploying a stent (20) in a bifurcated body lumen (10). The stent comprises a tubular body defining a lumen therethrough and having a side hole. The tubular body has a first portion (28) with a first wall mass and a second portion (26) with a second wall mass. The first wall mass is less than the second wall mass. When deployed, first portions of two stents overlap in a bifurcated body lumen. The side holes of the two stents are aligned with ostium of branch vessels (14, 16) at a bifurcated body lumen.
