CA 2340251

An insertable stent (10) is provided for joining together, and facilitating healing of adjacent tissues (18, 20). Typically, the tissues are mammalian tissues. The inserted stent is made from completely non-toxic, bio-compatible and blood compatible materials. Each of the tissues employed herein defines an internal cavity (22). The insertable stent body defines a bore. The bore permits fluid to pass through the inserted stent body (12). In use, the inserted stent (12) is introduced into the internal cavities of the tissues (22). The inserted stent body fits within the confines of, and in contact with, each of the adjacent tissues. Typically, at least a portion of the inserted stent body (l2) is fusible to the adjacent tissues (18, 20) for facilitating healing of these tissues.

L'invention concerne un stent (10) implantable servant à assembler et à faciliter la cicatrisation de tissus (18, 29) adjacents, en particulier de tissus de mammifères. Ce stent implantable est produit à partir de matériaux entièrement exempts de toxicité, biocompatibles et hématocompatibles. Chacun des tissus utilisés pour l'implantation définissent une cavité (22) interne. Le corps (12) du stent implantable forme un conduit permettant le passage d'un fluide. Pendant l'utilisation, le stent (12) implantable est introduit dans les cavités internes délimitées par les tissus (22). Le corps du stent implantable s'adapte aux contours des tissus et entre en contact avec ces derniers. En principe au moins une portion du corps (12) du stent implantable est fusible avec les tissus (18, 20) adjacents afin de faciliter la cicatrisation de ces tissus.
