<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an attachment mechanism which is used for a medical implant and an applier for attaching the medical implant to a body tissue. <P>SOLUTION: The attachment mechanism of a surgically implantable medical device includes one or two or more fasteners which can be simultaneously moved from a non-dispositional position to a dispositional position by the operation of an integrated actuator. The attachment mechanism can be constituted to cancel the actuation and can make the removal or the relocation of the medical device possible by simultaneously moving the fasteners from the dispositional position to the non-dispositional position. The applier includes a locator which removably holds the medical device for the implantation, allocates the medical device at the desired position and can actuate the attachment mechanism. The applier is constituted to be capable of moving the attachment mechanism to the non-dispositional position so that the medical device for the implantation is removed from the body tissue. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT |
