CA 2702446

Devices and methods for locking and/or cutting tethers during a tissue modification procedure are described. In some variations, a tether may be used to tighten or compress tissue by bringing two pieces or sections of the tissue together. The tether, which may be under tension, may be locked to maintain the tension, and excess tether may be severed, using one or more of the devices and/or methods. The devices and/or methods may be used, for example, in minimally invasive procedures.

L'invention concerne des dispositifs et des procédés pour bloquer et/ou couper des attaches pendant un protocole de modification de tissu. Dans certaines variantes, une attache peut être utilisée pour serrer ou comprimer les tissus en réunissant deux morceaux ou sections de tissu. L'attache, qui peut être sous tension, peut être bloquée pour maintenir la tension, et l'attache en excès peut être sectionnée, à l'aide d'un ou plusieurs dispositifs et/ou procédés. Les dispositifs et/ou procédés peuvent être utilisés, par exemple, dans des protocoles mini-invasifs.
