Abstract
A fastener or clamp for securing a tissue layer to another tissue or non-tissue layer has a proximal implant and a separate distal implant, connectible to each other, each implant having radially deployable legs that can engage the layers between the deployed legs, the legs being configured so that when the implants are connected, the legs of the proximal and distal implants are interdigitated in the absence of tissue.
