A proximal portion of the ligature element may have a keeper and the distal portion may have a barb which is slidably received in the keeper. The device may further include an applicator for putting the ligature element in place, a rectilinear metal rod which extends in the tube and which, at its distal end has a spring blade, and a sheath having a radial outer duct in which the spring blade is received, and a radial inner guide groove in which the ligature element is received.
