A tissue suspension device has an elongated spanning element with a first and a second end. A suspending element is attachable to the spanning element. A first supporting element is attached to the first end of the spanning element, and a second supporting element is attached to the second end of the spanning element. The tissue suspension device substantially spans the transverse width of the body cavity and suspends tissue within the body cavity. The first and second supporting elements are attachable to the body wall, which supports the weight of the suspended tissue.

The instrument disclosed may comprise a tube assembly further comprising substantially coaxially situated and relatively longitudinally movable tubes, supporting and operating an end effector that may be adapted for insertion into and through the urethra, and adapted for use in effecting the anastomosis of a patient's bladder and urethra following a prostatectomy. In alternative embodiments the tube assembly may comprise a rod and two tubes, three tubes, a rod and three tubes, or four tubes. The method disclosed may comprise inserting an instrument having an end effector into the bladder lumen, and using the end effector to urge the bladder wall to the pelvic floor and drive an anchor through the bladder wall and into the pelvic floor.

The method disclosed may be used following a prostatectomy may comprise inserting an instrument having an end effector into the bladder lumen via the urethra; using the end effector to urge the bladder wall to the pelvic floor and drive an anchor through the bladder wall into the pelvic floor, thereby connecting a balloon harness within the bladder to the pelvic floor; withdrawing the end effector; inserting and inflating a balloon catheter within the balloon harness, thereby pressing the bladder wall surrounding the bladder opening against the pelvic floor; maintaining the balloon catheter in place and draining the bladder during the time required for the tissues to effectively knit; and then deflating and withdrawing the balloon catheter and disconnecting and withdrawing the balloon harness. The instrument may comprise one or more tubes that support an end effector comprising a positioner and an anchor driver.

The method disclosed may be used following a prostatectomy, and may comprise inserting an instrument into the bladder lumen through incisions in the abdomen and bladder wall; using an end effector thereon to urge the bladder wall to the pelvic floor and align the openings of the bladder and urethra, and drive an anchor through the bladder wall into the pelvic floor, thereby connecting a balloon harness to the pelvic floor; inflating a balloon within the harness, which holds the bladder wall surrounding the bladder opening against the pelvic floor; maintaining the balloon in place and draining the bladder via a catheter during the time required for the tissues to effectively knit; and then deflating the balloon, disconnecting the harness, and withdrawing the instrument. The instrument may comprise one or more tubes that support an end effector comprising a positioner, an anchor driver, a harness, a balloon and a catheter.
