An anastomosis ring for interconnecting ends of living vessels in apposition of the ring having a tubular body with an annular wall surrounding a hollow bore. A plurality of impaling projections are provided at one end of the tubular member and a plurality of impaling projections are provided at the other end of the tubular member to impale a vessel end. A coupler device with a detachable connection holds the anastomosis ring adjacent the severed vessel ends. A first vessel end is inserted through a hollow bore of the tubular member and everted and impaled on the impaling projections. The second vessel end is drawn over the everted first vessel end and the intimas of the respective vessel ends are being brought into apposition and the second vessel and is impaled on the impaling projections. The anastomosis ring is then disconnected from the coupler device.
