Such a device is of a flexible sheath of liquid impermeable condom type substance that is divided into a tissue attachment means carrying section extending from a mouth and a concertina effect formed inner end section. Attachment means in the form of tines are carried along a carrier base that is constituted from zigzag formed coaxially arranged members that are spaced apart by linear spacers from which the tines extend. The tines and base form a carrier body that forms part of the section to the effect of enabling its expansion once exposed to an action of sheath penetration.
