ABSTRACT:
A dissolvable anastomosis stent comprises a first member for receiving a first vessel stump, a second member for receiving a second vessel stump, and engaging means for engaging the first and second members where the engaging means and members are constructed of a biocompatible, non-toxic material which substantially completely dissolves mammalian bodily fluids. In addition, methods for preparing the dissolvable anastomosis stent and methods for surgical mammalian anastomoses using the dissolvable anastomosis stent are disclosed.
