A tubular surgical implant particularly suitable for use in heart bypass surgery comprising a tube (1) having a flange (2) adapted to be folded and inserted into a cut in a vessel (8). The flange has a series of spikes (3) parallel to the tube which pass through the vessel wall and are engaged with holes (5) in a locking ring (4) slidable on the tube (1). The implant is typically connected between an aorta and a distal coronary artery in a heart bypass operation. |
