摘要: A fastener for surgical repair of tissue is provided along with methods for its use. The fastener includes first and second anchors and a connector including a first central biasing section coupled to the first anchor and a second central biasing section having coupled to the second anchor, and a connector section extending between the other ends of the first and second central biasing sections. The first and second central biasing sections are capable of being elastically deformed from a first relaxed resting position to a second extended position wherein the connector section is positioned a further distance away from and is biased toward the anchors.

摘要: A surgical balloon for insertion into a body cavity with a major chamber having a first volume and an annexed minor chamber communicating therewith and having a second volume less than the first volume has a continuous outer wall which defines the exterior surface of the balloon on a first side and the interior hollow of the balloon on a second side. The wall is formed from a stretchable elastic material permitting the interior hollow of the balloon to accommodate a variable volume of fluid ranging from a minimum deflated volume associated with a relaxed state of the wall to a maximum inflated volume associated with a stretched state of the wall. The wall has selected areas of varying expansibility attributable to varying wall thickness, heat or chemical treatment. The wall provides the balloon with an inflated shape within the cavity approximating the interior shape of the body cavity, including a first portion approximating the major chamber and a second portion approximating the minor chamber. As applied to balloons for insertion into the uterus for endometrial ablation therapy, the balloon has a pair of projections for inserting into the uterine cornua. The balloon may be preformed to mimic the uterine shape in the deflated state, and may be formed from polyurethane promoting conformance of the inflated balloon to the uterine cavity.

摘要: A surgical balloon is provided for insertion into a uterus that includes a substantially continuous outer wall defining an exterior surface of the balloon on a first side and an interior hollow of the balloon on a second side, with the outer wall being formed from a stretchable elastic material and being stretchable by pressure within the inner hollow between a collapsed state and an expanded state. The substantially continuous outer wall has a base portion for coupling with shaft, an intermediate portion adjacent the base portion and an end portion at a distal end of the balloon and adjacent the intermediate portion. The base portion has a first primary wall thickness, the intermediate portion has a second primary wall thickness, and the end portion has a third primary wall thickness.
