A tissue anchor includes a central body extending between a first lengthwise end and a second lengthwise end. A first arm extends outwardly from the central body, and a second arm extends outwardly from the central body and spaced from the first arm. The tissue anchor is movable between a collapsed state and a deployed state. In the collapsed state, the central body extends linearly from the first lengthwise end to the second lengthwise end of the central body along an axis and the first and second arms extend parallel to the axis. In the deployed state, the central body extends non-linearly and the first and second arms extend radially outwardly from the central body.

Anatomical tissue anchor and related methods

An anatomical tissue anchor includes a central body and tissue stabilizing arms extending outwardly from the central body. The tissue stabilizing arms are spaced apart from one another. The tissue anchor has a deployed state in which the central body defines an opening configured to allow an instrument to be passed therethrough and the tissue stabilizing arms extend radially outwardly from the central body.

A perfusion system for non-surgically isolating and perfusing an organ, particularly the liver (,), in a patient, and including; by-pass cathether apparatus having inlet and outlet lumens (,) introducible into the blood vessels of the organ percutaneously and devised so as to by-pass the blood flow past the organ in a by-pass circuit; perfusion catheter apparatus having inlet and outlet lumens (,) introducible into the blood vessels percutaneously and being devised so as to lead the flow of perfusion fluid in a perfusion circuit through the organ; occlusive seals (,) for isolating the organ from the systemic blood flow; pump apparatus including a by-pass pump (,), a perfusion fluid pump (,) and a suction pump (,) for establishing a negative relative pressure at the perfusion outlet from the organ; and control apparatus (,) coupled to the pumps (,) so as to control the operation thereof such that the outflow of fluid from the organ exceeds the inflow of fluid into the organ in the perfusion circuit due to a net volume contribution of blood from the systemic circulation entering the isolated organ.
