First Claim
1. A device for setting into place a seal around an implant in a blood vessel passage comprising:
- a hollow sheath having a longitudinal axis;
at least one releaser configured to be deployed with respect to the sheath between a retracted position in the sheath and an extracted position out of the sheath; and
a seal body having an angular extent of strictly less than 360°
around the longitudinal axis, the seal body being releasably attached onto the releaser so as to be released from the releaser, wherein the or each seal body includes a block in a flexible material and a stiff central framework positioned in the block in flexible material.
