ABSTRACT:
Apparatus and method for effecting anastomotic procedures. A deformable annular member has two operative modes, a deformed mode in which the member is shaped to be inserted through an opening in the wall of a hollow body member and a normal mode in which the member is retained within and around the opening. A tubular elastic membrane is attached in one open end to the annular member and extends through the opening to the exterior of the body member. A split ring attached to the other end of the tubular membrane radially tensions the membrane and sealingly engages it with the edges of the opening in the body member.
