Abstract:
An anastomosis device may include a base member defining a passageway between a first end and a second end of the base member, a first support member connected to the base member proximal to the first end, and a second support member connected to the base member proximal to the second end. The base member may have a cutting element to cut tissue from the first end. At least one of the first support member and the second support member may be movable along a length of the base member to secure a portion of tissue between the first and second support members.
