ABSTRACT:
An inflatable balloon capable of being delivered to a site within a body via a catheter or the like, includes on its surface a composition. The composition is capable of inducing the formation of a thrombosis followed by invasion of capillaries and fibroblasts to the thrombosis and subsequent scar formation. Scar formation fixedly adheres the balloon at its placement site to permanently locate the balloon at this placement site.
