An instrument for everting an end of a vessel. The instrument has a tubular member having an axial bore, a distal end and a proximal end. The instrument further also has an elastic membrane sealably mounted on the distal end of the tubular member, a plunger slidably mounted within the axial bore of the body, a spring operationally engaged to the plunger for biasing the plunger in the distal direction and distending the membrane for insertion into the vessel, a distally extending mandrel mounted to the plunger, a sleeve slidably mounted over the membrane and at least a portion of the tubular member, and a proximal seal mounted in the proximal end of the axial bore so that the membrane, the proximal seal, and the axial bore define a sealed chamber. The instrument further comprises a pressure source for pressurizing the sealed chamber to expand the membrane into an expanded configuration, the sleeve limiting radial expansion of the membrane, and for depressurizing the sealed chamber to collapse the membrane into a collapsed configuration.
