Abstract
Disclosed herein are a medical implement and a method, by which the length or volume of an implanted device actually deposited can be changed or adjusted even after inserted into a patient's body, and thus an implanted device of an appropriate length or volume can be deposited. The medical implement for depositing an implanted device comprises a catheter which is to be inserted into a patient's body and has an electrode at its distal part, and a wire device guided by the catheter. The wire device comprises a wire and the implanted device connected to the distal end of the wire through a first severable joint member. The implanted device has a structure that a plurality of implanted elements are joined to each other through one or more second severable joint members, successively. The first joint member or any one of the second joint members is severed in a state that the implanted device is projected from the distal end of the catheter.
