Claim:
A device for producing anastomoses between a first hollow organ and a second hollow organ, wherein each of the hollow organs comprises an outer surface and an inner surface, the device comprising: a sheath, configured such that the first hollow organ can pass through a center of the sheath and be folded over such that at least one section of the inner surface of the first hollow organ comes to be located adjacent an outside surface of the sheath, the sheath further being configured such that the second hollow organ can be positioned over the first hollow organ such that at least one section of the inside surface of the second hollow organ is in contact with the at least one section of the inside surface of the first hollow organ; and an adhesive applicator configured to apply adhesive between and in contact with both the inside surfaces of the first and second hollow organs, wherein the adhesive applicator comprises at least one adhesive channel with at least one section, the at least one section of the adhesive channel arranged parallel to the sheath for introducing an adhesive between the first and the second hollow organs, wherein the at least one adhesive channel has at least one guide for positioning the second hollow organ in a longitudinal direction of the sheath, and wherein the at least one guide is integrated into the adhesive channel such that the adhesive channel comprises an elbow section having an inside angle smaller than or equal to 90° as an abutment guide for positioning the second hollow organ.
