Abstract

Distal anastomosis devices and associated methodology are described herein. Connector (2) and connector components as well as tools associated therewith are disclosed. The connectors (2) are preferably adapted to produce an end-to-side anastomosis at a graft/coronary artery junction. A fitting (10) alone, or a fitting (10) in combination with a collar (12) may be used as a connector (2). Each fitting (10) may be deployed by deflecting its shape to provide clearance for a rear segment (18) that rotates about adjoining hinge section (s) (28) so to fit the connector within an aperture formed in a host vessel. Upon return to a substantially relaxed position, a rear segment (18) anchors the interfacing with the host vessel/coronary artery. The collar (12) may include features complimentary to those of a fitting (10) and provisions for strain relief and securing the graft vessel.
