Abstract
The present invention relates to an anastomotic device (10) comprising a first ring (20) having a first contact surface (21) and a second ring (30) having a second contact surface (31). The rings (20, 30) are suitable to be approached in the axial direction (X) such as to move said contact surfaces (21; 31) towards each other. The anastomotic device is characterized in that the contact surfaces (21, 31) have an undulated shape relative to a plane (π) perpendicular to the axis (X) of the rings (20, 30). According to another aspect thereof, the invention also relates to an apparatus (60) for the implantation of the anastomotic device (10). According to a further aspect thereof, the invention relates to a kit comprising an anastomotic device (10) and an apparatus (60) for the implantation of the same.
