A percutaneous system comprising an intracorporeal connector for fluid communication between two anatomical compartments through at least one anatomical wall, wherein the connector comprises a neck for fluid passage from one compartment to the other, and wherein the connector comprises means for preventing tissue from hindering fluid passage through the neck.
A percutaneous system comprising an intracorporeal connector for fluid communication between two anatomical compartments through at least one anatomical wall, wherein the connector is made wholly or partly of a shape memory material.
A percutaneous system comprising an intracorporeal connector for fluid communication between two anatomical compartments through at least one anatomical wall, wherein the connector comprises a neck for fluid passage from one compartment to the other, wherein the neck comprises a gate to selectively prevent or allow passage of fluid through the neck.
A percutaneous system comprising an intracorporeal connector for fluid communication between two anatomical compartments through at least one anatomical wall, further comprising means for treating the fluid.
A percutaneous system comprising an intracorporeal connector for fluid communication between two anatomical compartments through at least one anatomical wall, and an intracorporeal device for regulating the flow of fluid between the two anatomical compartments, wherein the device for regulating the flow of fluid comprises a rotatable shaft supporting at least one blade, said blade being adapted for extension in the longitudinal direction of the shaft into an insertion configuration.
