摘要:
Devices, systems, and methods employ at least one ferromagnetic structure sizedand configured for placement in a tissue region. A component is attached to thestructure to stabilize its placement in the tissue region. An anchoring structureholds the component in a state of tension. The anchoring structure can, e.g.,take the from of an anchoring body that expands in situ. The anchoring structurecan be adjustable for adjusting the state of tension. The component can be elastic,to deflect under load in a prescribed manner and to recover an initial shape whenunloaded.
