Abstract

A connector (10) for use in providing an anastomotic connection between two tubular body fluid conduits in a patient is provided. The connector (10) is preferably a single, integral structure that can be cut from a tube. The connector (10) has axially spaced portions (20, 40) that include 'fingers' (22, 42) for engaging the two body fluid conduits. The connector (10) also has members that have sharpened end portions (24) that engage and penetrate the wall of one of the body fluid conduits. The fingers (22, 42) and sharpened members (24) hold the two conduits together in a fluid-tight engagement. Apparatus for use in deploying a connector is also disclosed.
