       4 . A device for tamponade of body cavities and for mechanical anchoring of a catheter, the device comprising:
 a flexible tube segment having an inner wall and an outer wall that surround an interior space wherein said tube segment is inflatable to assume a torus geometry with said inner wall defining an internal area, and the internal area is configured without through-passing support bodies so that a displacement of tube wall material between said inner wall and said outer wall of said tube segment is possible as inflation proceeds, wherein said tube segment consists of a transparent material and further comprises:   a. two ends, which are fastened to a same closing element, configured so that a torus geometry is striven for as said inflatable tube segment is inflated and   b. said closing element is a pipe nipple and said two ends of said tube segment are joined together fluid-tightly.
