Abstract
A medical implant () includes first and second ring members (), each including a resilient framework () having a generally cylindrical form. A tubular sleeve () is fixed to the first and second ring members so as to hold the ring members in mutual longitudinal alignment, thereby defining a lumen () passing through the ring members. A constricting element () is fit around the sleeve at a location intermediate the first and second ring members so as to reduce a diameter of the lumen at the location.
