<p>The prosthesis (10) has a lattice (12) deformable between a retracted state of small diameter and an expanded state of larger diameter, where outer hooks (18, 19) are delimited between the states. A clamp (16) is engaged in an outer tissue. The hooks are carried by the lattice, and moved between a spaced-apart position in which the clamp is open and a closer-together position in which the clamp is closed. A guiding member (20) is provided for moving the hooks during deformation of the prosthesis, where the guiding member delimits a guide passage in which the hooks is engaged. An independent claim is also included for a blood vessel treatment kit comprising a tube for delivery of the body delimiting a conduit for confinement of the prosthesis in a retracted state.</p> |
