ABSTRACT:
A percutaneous implant serves for implantation into an animal or a human body. The implant is of the kind that has an anchoring section, extending radially from a distal end of an interior section. The anchoring section comprises an inner anchoring ring extending from or integral with the interior section, an outer anchoring ring, and at least one connection member for connecting the inner anchoring ring with the outer anchoring ring. Since a first connection point between a first end of the at least one connection member and the inner anchoring ring is angularly offset from a second connection point between a second end of the connection member and the outer anchoring ring, the anchoring section constitutes a resilient spring means, which adapts to the movements of the body. The implant is especially designed for use without externalization of the vessel to be brought into communication with the exterior.
