An apparatus for reducing the circumference of a vascular structure (50) comprising a plurality of sutures (60) and a plurality of discrete suture support segments (10) of a biocompatible, inert material, each suture support segment having at least two suture holes (24 and 26), spaced a predetermined distance (D) apart. A biocompatible, inert stabilizing material (70) may optionally be affixed over the suture support segments and the vascular structure prior to tying off the suture to stabilize the interval between the suture support segments and eliminate direct exposure of the segmented apparatus to blood.

Appareil pour la réduction de la circonférence d'une structure vasculaire (50) et présentant une pluralité de sutures (60) ainsi qu'une pluralité de segments de support de suture séparés (10) en matériau inerte biocompatible, chaque segment présentant au moins deux orifices de suture (24, 26) séparés par une distance (D) prédéterminée. Un matériau de stabilisation (70) inerte et biocompatible peut éventuellement être fixé sur les segments de support de suture et la structure vasculaire avant que la suture ne soit nouée de sorte que l'intervalle entre les segments de support de suture soit stabilisé et que l'exposition au sang directe de l'appareil à segments soit supprimée.
