Definitions
- the present invention relates to a surgical device for use in minimally invasive surgery of the type using patient pneumoperitoneum and an access port.
- Minimally invasive surgery of this type is carried out having introduced gas into a patient's body cavity through an incision and sealed the incision with an access port.
- the access port enables laproscopic and hand or instrument assisted surgery to be performed.
- a sleeve forming such a port is shown in WO-N-95/07056 entitled "Apparatus for use in surgery".
- the access port sleeve shown is used to create a controlled pressurized environment within the sleeve while allowing a surgeon's arm to pass through the sleeve.
- gas is pumped into the patient's body cavity where the surgery is to be performed and the sleeve prevents gas escaping while allowing the surgeon to operate using minimally invasive surgery techniques.
- the application shows a sleeve having a flange at a distal end provided with adhesive for adhering the device to a patient's body or alternatively a mounting ring to surround the incision in a patient's body.
- the device described suffers from the principle disadvantage that in use, the sleeve protrudes upwardly from the patient and may interfere with the activities of the surgery team. Additionally, the sleeve must be sealed against the surgeon's upper forearm by clamping the device to the arm sufficiently tightly to avoid gas leak around the area of the seal. This presents the surgeon with a problem both in sealing the sleeve and in subsequent mobility.
- a surgical device for use in minimally invasive surgery of the type using an inflated body cavity accessible to a surgeon through an access port, defined by the device, surrounding an incision in a patients body, the device having: -
- body cavity engagement means for insertion into the incision to locate the device in position
- fixing means for attaching the device to a patients skin
- sealing means operating on the sleeve to prevent substantial leakage of gas from the body cavity on inflation when in an inoperative position and formed to mould a substantial portion of a surgeon's hand or surgical instrument on insertion in an operating position.
- the sleeve is provided by a perforated wall defining a substantially cylindrical tube.
- the body cavity engagement means is provided by a distal ring formed for insertion into the incision.
- the fixing means is provided by a proximal ring for engaging with a patient's skin.
- the proximal ring has an associated connector ring for receiving additional seals or medical instruments.
- the sealing means is provided by an inflatable first seal for engaging and retracting the incision and a second inflatable seal for sealing the lumen of the tube or sleeve bore.
- the first seal is provided by an inflatable bladder extending outwardly from the sleeve on inflation to form a seal with the incision.
- the second seal is provided by an inflatable bladder extending inwardly from the tube or sleeve on inflation to prevent excessive loss of gas through the access port.
- the second seal is operatively connected and mounted within the first seal.
- Fig. 1 is a front view of a surgical device in accordance with the invention.
- Fig. 2 is an exploded view of the surgical device of Fig. 1.
- the surgical device 1 is formed for use in minimally invasive surgery of the type using an inflated body cavity indicated generally by the reference numeral 2.
- the cavity 2 is accessible to a surgeon through an access port, defined by a sleeve 4, passing through an incision in a patient's abdominal wall 3.
- the sleeve 4 is provided in this case by a perforated wall defining a cylindrical tube
- the device 1 has a body cavity engagement means provided by a distal ring 5 for insertion into the incision to locate the device 1 in position.
- the device 1 is held in position on the patient's skin out side the body by a fixing means provided in this case by a proximal ring 6.
- the distal ring 5 and proximal ring 6 ensure that the device 1 is securely fixed in position, both rings 5,6 surround the incision and the sleeve 4 passes through the incision connecting the rings.
- the proximal ring 6 may have a connector ring (not shown) for receiving additional seals to prevent loss of pressure from the cavity 2.
- the connector ring may also be used for holding or guiding medical instruments into position over, through or in the incision.
- Sealing means is provided to prevent undue loss of gas from the inflated body cavity 2 by a two part inflatable seal.
- An incision-engaging bladder 10 provides a first seal for engaging and retracting the incision when inflated.
- a second seal is provided by a self-engaging bladder 12 mounted within the sleeve 4 for sealing the sleeve 4 when similarly inflated.
- the sleeve 4 separates the incision-engaging bladder 10 and the self-engaging bladder 12.
- the self-engaging bladder 12 surrounds the internal surface of the sleeve 4 and the external surface of the sleeve 4 is in turn surrounded by the incision-engaging bladder 10 thereby providing a compact unit, which is easy to operate.
- an incision is made in the abdominal wall 3 and the distal ring 5 passed through the incision into the cavity 2.
- the distal ring 5 is moved when in the cavity 2 so that the ring 5 surrounds the incision.
- the proximal ring 6 is then attached to the patients skin to fix the device 1 in position with the sleeve 4 being connected between the proximal ring 6 and the distal ring 5 and passing between the portions of the abdominal wall 3 exposed by the incision.
- the incision-engaging bladder 10 and the self-engaging bladder 12 both surrounding the sleeve 4 are also in position passing through the abdominal wall.
- a hand operated bellows 11 can then pumped to inflate both the incision-engaging bladder 10 and the self-engaging bladder 12.
- the incision-engaging bladder 10 expands outwardly from the external wall of the sleeve 4 to press against the abdominal wall exposed by the incision to prevent loss of gas from the cavity 2.
- the self-engaging bladder 12 expands inwardly from the internal wall of the sleeve 4 to close the sleeve 4 against itself thereby preventing loss of gas through the sleeve 4.
- a hand or instrument is passed down through the sleeve 4.
- the inward pressure of the self-engaging bladder 12 ensures that the sleeve is only opened sufficiently to allow the inserted object to pass but prevents loss of pressure from the body cavity.
- the same pressure re-seals the sleeve 4 as described above.
- air or gas is expelled from the bladder 12 through perforations in the sleeve 4. The expelled air or gas is forced into the bladder 10 which expands and further retracts the incision, enhancing the ease of access through the sleeve 4 and incision.
