Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2006136861A1] A method of making artificial graft tubing is disclosed. The method comprises providing a helical mandrel having a centre line following a substantially helical path, providing a generally tubular wall having a longitudinally extending cavity, positioning the helical mandrel inside the tubular wall so that the longitudinally extending cavity has a centre line following a substantially helical path, and causing the tubular wall to retain, at least partly, the shape with the longitudinally extending helical cavity. Another method comprises providing a mandrel having a substantially helical groove, providing a generally tubular wall having a longitudinally extending cavity, positioning the tubular wall at least partly in the groove so that the longitudinally extending cavity has a centre line following a substantially helical path, and causing the tubular wall to retain, at least partly, the shape with the longitudinally extending helical cavity.
