Abstract: An intragastric device inserted by endoscopic path into a patient's stomach. The device includes a balloon or envelope having a specific nominal volume. The balloon is sealingly connected to connecting elements consisting of a disc forming a support base for the balloon against an inner wall of the stomach. The device also includes a flexible tube or catheter for connecting the balloon to a filling device and catching element integral with the tube or catheter. The connection elements enable a doctor to set and/or remove the balloon and to fix, either inside the patient's body, or subcutaneously the filling device and to be able to bring the balloon or envelope to its predetermined nominal volume.
