Abstract

An implantable device for restricting a cross-sectional area of a cavity formed by a stomach wall includes a member. The member has a first end connected with respect to a first portion of the stomach wall and an opposing second end connected with respect to a second portion of the stomach wall. The member has shape memory properties and is adapted to move the first end towards the second end.
