FIELD: medicine. SUBSTANCE: device has two cups. Each cup is essentially ring coupled to base by means of jumpers where titanium-nickelide spring is secured with the aid of split washers and end nuts. To prevent quick (untimely) compression of spring under effect of body temperature, shifting of rings in plane perpendicular to device axis, as well as of strangulation of intestine edge between spring turns, when tightening the pursestring suture, bases of cups have guides which enter slots of common bushing with their projections and serve as spring frame. Slots are made for spring locking in stretched position. EFFECT: enhanced reliability of suture, simplified operation technology. 8 dwg
