  • Patent number: 10835366
    Abstract: An arterial anchor device and a venous anchor device operably coupled by graft material to form an anastomotic convector is provided. The arterial anchor device comprises a generally tubular main body including a distal end and a proximal end, the distal end defining a plurality of flanges integrally formed with the tubular main body and being movable from a first loaded position to a second expanded position. The venous anchor device includes a tubular main body having a metal frame structure and including a distal end and a proximal end, the distal end including a plurality of barbs thereon wherein said distal end has an outer diameter greater than the proximal end. The arterial anchor device and venous devices are fluidly connected by a graft to form an anastomotic connector.

  • Patent number: 10456239
    Abstract: An anastomotic connector comprises a vessel anchor, a midgraft connector and graft material. The vessel anchor has a generally tubular main body including a distal end and a proximal end, the distal end defining a plurality of flanges integrally formed with the tubular main body and being movable from a first loaded position to a second expanded position. The midgraft connector operably couples the graft to the vessel anchor to form an anastomotic connector between an artery and a vein.

  • Patent number: 9055946
    Abstract: An anastomotic connector comprises a generally tubular access port having a first end and a second end and a main body portion in fluid communication with the second end of the access port that is structured to be deployed within a fluid passageway. The main body portion includes an expandable mesh frame defining a pair of flanges extending outwardly from the second end of the access port and a retention strap extending across the second end of the access port. The pair of flanges and the retention strap are structured to exert a radial force on an internal surface of a fluid passageway when the mesh frame of the main body portion is expanded within the fluid passageway. Furthermore, the pair of flanges and the retention strap allow the passage of fluid to the distal tissues that the native fluid passageway is supplying.
