摘要 |
The invention is concerned with an apparatus for preventing incontinence with a fixing device to be immovably implanted in body tissue, whereby a tubular body (3) features a first elongated guiding element (5; 105) inside, a tube-like retaining element is connected to the tubular body (3) which features a second longitudinal guiding element (13) inside which continues in an axial direction and terminates on its opposing side to the tubular body (3) in a finish. The first elongated guiding element (5; 105) features the fixing device, whereby it defines areas with projections (7) being axially displaced relative to each other, whereby the projections in a non-extended state are formed as slits (23) which protrude out of the surface of the first guiding element (5; 105) and are positioned through the formation of the finished projections when the first guiding element (5; 105) is compressed in an axial direction.
