Abstract

A loading unit for use with a surgical stapling apparatus is provided and includes a tool assembly having a cartridge assembly and an anvil assembly that are movable in relation to one another; a surgical buttress releasably secured to a tissue contacting surface of the anvil assembly and / or the cartridge assembly, wherein each surgical buttress is secured to the anvil assembly and / or the cartridge assembly by at least one anchor; a release assembly associated with the anvil assembly and / or the cartridge assembly; and a drive assembly slidably translatable through the tool assembly between proximal and distal positions, wherein the drive assembly actuates the release assembly to thereby release the anchor to free the surgical buttress from the anvil assembly and / or the cartridge assembly.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to a surgical device including a butress material. In particular, the present disclosure relates to a surgical anastomotic device including a detachable surgical buttress, and / or an endoscopic surgical anastomotic device including a detachable surgical buttress. Background technique [0002] Surgical devices for grasping or clamping tissue between opposed jaw structures and then joining the tissue with surgical fasteners are well known in the art. In some instruments blades are provided for cutting tissue that has been joined by fasteners. Fasteners are usually in the form of surgical staples, but two-piece polymeric fasteners are also available. [0003] Instruments used for this purpose may include two elongated jaw members for grasping or clamping tissue, respectively. In some surgical staplers, one of the jaw members has a staple magazine loaded with a plurality of staples arranged in at least two horizontal rows, ...
