Abstract: A device is provided which can act as one component of an anastomosis-forming assembly, i.e. as an anastomosis button. The device comprises a plurality of elongate members having a first, introduction configuration in which they are substantially aligned with one another, and a second, use configuration in which they are disposed at an angle to one another. For example, there may be two such elongate members, which, in the use configuration, form a cross. The device comprises means, for example, a tensionable thread, for bringing the elongate members into the use configuration.

Abstract: A device is provided for use in joining together first and second tissue layers. The device comprises a catheter with an inflatable balloon mounted on the catheter adjacent one and thereof. An inflation channel is provided which is an fluid communication with the interior of the balloon and with a source of inflation fluid for introducing the inflation fluid into the interior of the balloon. The balloon is inflated and engages an outwardly facing surface of the first tissue layer and a tissue-engaging member, for example a cup or another balloon, engages an outwardly facing surface of the second tissue layer. The inwardly facing surfaces of the first and second tissue layers are thereby urged into engagement with on another.

Abstract: Devices and methods are provided which may be used for suturing, including performing a totally transoral surgical procedure, such as a posterior gastropexy procedure. A suture lock and cut assembly is provided to lock and cut one or more sutures in one motion, which motion can be a non-curved, non rotational linear motion. The suture lock and cut assembly with one or more sutures threaded therethrough may be pushed through, for example, a patient's esophagus and into the stomach by the tip of an endoscope, or alternatively, sized to be fed through the working channel of the endoscope.
