Therefore, first, the patch 3 located in the front is
Then, the patch 3 located at the rear is folded in four and inserted into the catheter 6 from the rear end. Figure 6 shows the patch 3 folded into four parts. Here, the patch 3 located at the rear is the one from which the end of the thread 4 is led out. The thread 4 connecting both patches 3 is loosened appropriately, and the end of the thread 4 pulled out from the rear patch 3 is inserted into the outer tube 9. In this state, insert the outer tube 9 from the rear end of the catheter 6 and connect the inner patch 3.
It is intended to push out the By the way, the actual operation inside the body involves, for example, puncturing the femoral vein at the base of the leg and feeding the tip of the catheter 6 to the defect opening 7 in the affected area as shown in Figure 2a.
The tip of the is passed through the defect opening 7. Next, when the outer tube 9 is pushed further in the order shown in FIG. It automatically expands on the other side of the defect opening 7 due to the elastic restoring force of the frame 1. Next, as shown in FIG. 2d, when the catheter 6 is pulled slightly, the patch 3 located at the front is pressed against the outer peripheral wall on the other side of the defect opening 7. Here, since the patch 3 is previously formed larger than the defect opening 7, it comes into contact with the peripheral wall on the other side of the defect opening 7 without passing through the defect opening 7. Next, as shown in FIG. 2e, push the outer tube 9 a little further to push out the patch 3 on the front side of the defect opening 7 from the tip of the catheter 6.
It automatically expands due to the elastic restoring force of the bendable ring-shaped frame 1 which is elastic and has a ring shape on the near side of the defect opening 7. Next, with the outer tube 9 pressed against the patch 3 at the rear, the ends of the threads 4 led out from the patch 3 at the rear are pulled and tightened to connect the two patches 3 located on both sides of the defect opening 7. Close the defect opening 7 as shown in Fig. 2 f.
The outer circumferential edge of the hole 7 is firmly clamped and fixed by both patches 3, and the defect opening 7 is closed by both patches 3. When the thread 4 is strongly pulled, the circumferential suture line is narrowed to a smaller circumference, the surrounding cloth 2 is pulled, and the area around the defect opening 7 is pinched more strongly by both patches 3. It is something that will be done. Furthermore, if the circular shape of the suture line is close to the size of the defect opening 7, the defect opening 7 will be more securely closed and no leakage will occur, and when the thread 4 is pulled strongly, the areas around both patches 3 will be tightly The area around the defect opening 7 will be strongly clamped. In this way, the defect opening 7 is closed with the two patches 3, and the thread 4 is cut near the part where it is led out from the rear patch 3 in the following manner. That is, as shown in FIG. 2g, the inner tube 10 is inserted into the outer tube 9, and the thread 4
Insert the end from the tip of the inner tube 10 and take it out from the rear end, carry the cutting bend 12 near the tip of the outer tube 9 to the part where you want to cut the thread 4, and then,
Insert the inner tube 10 from the rear end of the outer tube 9, and insert the cutting edge 11 at the tip of the inner tube 10.
from the state shown in FIG. 4a until it presses against the cutting bend 12 as shown in FIG. 4b. Then, the thread 4 passing through the metal outer tube 9 and further through the metal inner tube 10 inserted into the metal outer tube 10 is cut into metal by the cutting edge 11 at the tip of the metal inner tube 10. It is strongly pressed against the cutting bent part 12 of the outer tube 9 and is cut by the cutting edge part 11. After the cutting is completed, the outer tube 9 into which the inner tube 10 has been inserted is removed.
The catheter 6 is pulled out with the catheter 6 inserted.

Another embodiment of the invention is shown in FIG.
In this embodiment, when suturing two patches 3 so that they can come close to each other, the patch 3 extends from slightly inside the outer circumferential edge of one patch 3 to near the center of the patch 3 on the side opposite to the other patch 3. An embodiment is shown in which a shrinkage prevention member 5 is arranged from the outer peripheral edge of the patch 3 to the vicinity of the center. In this embodiment, the shrinkage prevention member 5 is a ring-shaped frame 1
It is a cylindrical member with poor elasticity compared to the cylindrical shrinkage prevention member 5, through which the end of the thread 4 drawn out from slightly inside the outer peripheral edge of the patch 3 to the center is passed. By providing the shrinkage prevention member 5 in this manner, it is possible to reliably prevent the patch 3 from shrinking too much and coming off from the defect opening 7 when the end of the thread 4 led out is pulled strongly. I'm starting to be able to do it. When the shrinkage preventing member 5 is folded and inserted into the catheter 6, the shrinkage preventing member 5 can be inserted by folding the patch 3 so that the shrinkage preventing member 5 is in the same direction as the axis of the catheter 6. 5 can be inserted without folding it. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 8, a plurality of threads 4 are used as threads 4 for sewing two patches 3 together.
This figure shows an embodiment in which the thread 4 of the main patch 3 is guided from the vicinity of the outer periphery of the patch 3 at the rear to the center within the cylindrical shrinkage prevention member 5. In this embodiment, the plurality of threads 4 are sewn together so as to form a part of the circumference, and the threads 4 are sewn together circumferentially as a whole. Here, only one end of each thread 4 may be led out from the center of one patch 3, and the other end of the thread 4 may be tied to prevent it from coming off from the patch 3. Preferably, this knot 20 is located between both patches 3. In addition, FIG. 7 shows an embodiment in which another thread 19 is wound in a coil shape without using the shrinkage prevention member 5, and a knot 20 is provided at one end of the thread 4, and the other end of the thread 4 is In this embodiment, the knot 20 is led out from the center of the rear patch 3, and the knot 20 is connected to another thread 1 wound in a coil.
The presence of 9 prevents it from falling out.

[Effects of the Invention] As described above, in the present invention, two patches each having a cloth stretched over a bendable ring-shaped elastic ring-shaped frame are placed facing each other with a gap in between, and one The two patches are sewn together so that they come close to each other by pulling the thread led out to the patch side. Each patch is folded and inserted into the catheter, delivered to the target defect opening, released before and after the defect opening, and restored to a ring shape by the elastic restoring force of the ring-shaped frame.
By pulling the thread, the two patches located on both sides of the defect opening can be brought close together, and the outer periphery of the defect opening can be pinched by both patches, and the defect opening can be closed by both patches. As a result, the body surface is injured. Therefore, the short circuit can be easily and reliably closed non-surgically.

In addition, if the two patches are sutured concentrically with thread slightly inside the outer edges of the defect, both patches will be sutured together slightly inside the outer edges of the defect opening, and the outer edges of both patches will be more secure. The patch can hold the outer periphery of the defect opening and the patch will not come off from the defect opening.

In addition, by setting the lead-out part of the thread led out to one patch side to be the center part of one patch, when pulling the thread to bring two patches closer together, the operation of pulling the thread is applied to one patch. It is made from the central part of the body and can be pulled efficiently and in a well-balanced manner.
