    Abstract: Described herein are endoscopic plicators passed transorally into the stomach and used to plicate stomach tissue by engaging tissue from inside of the stomach and drawing it inwardly. In the disclosed embodiments, the tissue is drawn inwardly into a vacuum chamber, causing sections of serosal tissue on the exterior of the stomach to be positioned facing one another. The disclosed plicators allow the opposed sections of tissue to be moved into contact with one another, and preferably deliver sutures, staples or other means for maintaining contact between the tissue sections at least until serosal bonds form between them. Each of these steps may be performed wholly from the inside of the stomach and thus can eliminate the need for any surgical or laparoscopic intervention. After one or more plications is formed, medical devices may be coupled to the plication(s) for retention within the stomach.

    Abstract: Devices and methods for placing a conduit (10) in fluid communication with a target vessel (TV) to communicate the target vessel (TV) with a source of blood. A conduit (10) is coupled to the target vessel (TV) by first (14) and second (16) securing components that compress or sandwich the vessel wall. The conduit (10) can be preshaped to assume a desired orientation when in an unbiased state, for example, to allow the conduit (10) to be deformed during delivery and then regain its desired orientation once deployed. The first (14) and second (16) securing components may be any shape but are preferably elongated in the direction of the vessel axis, e.g., elliptical or rectangular, such that a minimum amount of material is present at the outlet to closely approximate the cross-sectional area of the native target vessel. The securing components (14, 16) do not significantly occlude the target vessel lumen, may be secured to the vessel wall in non-penetrating fashion, and provides a fluid-tight seal around the attachment site. The conduit (10) may comprise tissue, synthetic material, etc., and one or both securing components may be constructed or provided with means for attaching an outologous vessel.
