End-to-end anastomosis by enclosure between a prosthesis and a vessel with a significant difference in diameter

A technique is described that allows an end-to-end anastomosis between a vascular prosthesis and a vessel that is much smaller in diameter. This procedure involves enclosing the prosthesis and the vessel while keeping the vascular axis straight without any kinking. In addition, this technique makes little demand on the extensibility of the natural tissue in order to adapt to the prosthesis, which is inextensible.
