  • TISSUE ANCHOR FOR SECURING TISSUE LAYERS
    Publication number: 20210378672
    Abstract: Tissue anchors comprise a woven filament braid body having an elongated tubular configuration and a foreshortened configuration where proximal and distal ends of the body expand radially into double-walled flange structures while leaving a cylindrical saddle region therebetween. The tissue anchors are deployed through penetrations between adjacent tissue layers, where the flanges engage the outer surfaces of the tissue layers and the saddle region resides within the tissue penetrations.
    Type: Application
    Filed: August 26, 2021
    Publication date: December 9, 2021
