A hollow tissue inosculation apparatus inosculate two hollow tissues with a staple having elastically deformable pins. The inosculation apparatus includes a holder to hold the staple, a curvature control mechanism to control curvature of the pins of the staple held in the holder so as to straighten the pins, and a gap control mechanism to control gaps between the holder and the hollow tissues so as to reduce the gaps to cause the straightened pins to penetrate through the hollow tissues. The gap control mechanism includes two support mechanisms to support the hollow tissues and a mechanism to move the support mechanisms with respect to the holder. The support mechanisms include supports to support the hollow tissues when the pins are stuck into the hollow tissues. Contact parts of the supports with the hollow tissues are spaced apart from positions where the pins penetrate through the hollow tissue.
