Problems solved by technology

[0008] However, known methods and devices for lining the lumen of hollow organs, particularly portions of the gastrointestinal tract, do not adequately address the needs and specific problems that arise when removing, replacing or repositioning endoluminal sleeves
[0009] Furthermore, known devices and methods do not adequately address the need for good visual control and verification of the correct target site for anchoring the endoluminal cannula, and the need for visual control and verification during removal of the endoluminal cannula. The need for location confirmation

Embodiment Construction

[0038] Referring to the drawings, wherein like numerals represent like anatomy and components throughout the several views, Figure 1 to Figure 5 An endoluminal liner 1 for lining the interior of a hollow organ, in particular a part of the gastrointestinal tract 2, is shown. The liner 1 comprises a flexible tubular sleeve body 3 extending between a proximal end 4 and a distal end 5 and at least one anchoring portion 6 formed at one of said proximal end 4 and distal end 5 . The anchoring portion 6 is used to connect the cannula body 3 to the hollow organ, eg by suturing. A separation zone 7 is formed between the anchoring portion 6 and the sleeve body 3 , in which a pull-activated separation member 8 is incorporated and forms at least one active tab 9 extending inside the liner 1 . The separation zone 7 and the separation member 8 are such that when the activation tab 9 is pulled, the separation member 8 will cause the breakage of the separation zone 7 and separate the sleeve ...

Abstract

An endoluminal lining (1) for internally lining a hollow organ comprises a flexible tubular sleeve body (3), at least one anchoring portion (6) formed at an end (4) of the sleeve body and provided for the connection of the sleeve body (3) to the hollow organ, a detaching zone (7) formed between the anchoring portion (6) and the sleeve body (3) and a pull-activatable detaching member (8) incorporated in the detaching zone (7) and forming an activating tab (9) such that, upon pulling the activating tab (9), the detaching member (8) causes breakage of the detaching zone (7) and separates the sleeve body (3) from the anchoring portion (6).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to medical devices and methods, and more particularly to devices and methods for internally lining a hollow body organ such as the stomach, intestine or gastrointestinal tract. Background technique [0002] In cases of severe obesity, patients can currently undergo various types of surgery to ligate or suture parts of the large or small intestine or stomach, and / or bypass parts of these organs, thereby reducing the amount of food the patient needs and the amount absorbed by the gastrointestinal tract. Currently available procedures include laparoscopic banding (where a device is used to "ligate" or tighten part of the stomach), vertical band gastroplasty (VBG), or gastric bypass known as Roux-En-Y More invasive surgical procedures used to achieve permanent surgical volume reduction of the stomach with subsequent bowel bypass. [0003] Although these gastric volume reduction procedures reduce the size of the pat...
