Arthroscopy Components

Abstract

The invention discloses an arthroscope assembly which comprises an arthroscope and an arthroscope bracket. The arthroscope is mainly composed of an arthroscope core and an arthroscope sheath arranged on the arthroscope core in a sleeving mode, the arthroscope sheath is slidably matched with the arthroscope core, a light guiding optical fiber and an image transferring optical fiber are arranged in the arthroscope core, the front end of the arthroscope core is made of a flexible material and is in a bent shape in a natural state, and the front end of the arthroscope core can be retracted into the arthroscope sheath when the arthroscope core is pulled. According to the arthroscope assembly, the pointing direction of a lens arranged at the end of the arthroscope core can be controlled by adjusting the length of the portion, stretching out of the arthroscope sheath, of the arthroscope core, the operative region can be observed in an omnibearing mode during an operation, and therefore the physical power of a physician can be greatly saved and the operation intensity can be greatly lowered during the operation.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a surgical tool, in particular to an arthroscopic assembly. Background technique [0002] Arthroscopy is a rod-shaped optical instrument with a diameter of about 5 mm for observing the internal structure of joints. It is an endoscope used for diagnosis and treatment of joint diseases. In the past, there were the following problems in minimally invasive surgery using arthroscopy: 1) During the operation, the surgeon generally needed to operate the arthroscope with one hand and surgical forceps and other tools with the other hand, and the medical staff had high work intensity and high physical exertion; 2 ) The front end of the sheath of the existing arthroscope is a straight tube, which cannot flexibly control the viewing angle of the arthroscope, and there is a dead angle that cannot be observed during the operation; 3) When the arthroscope is used for knee surgery, in order to facilitate the arthroscope to enter the jo...

Problems solved by technology

In the past, there were the following problems in minimally invasive surgery using arthroscopy: 1) During the operation, the surgeon generally needed to operate the arthroscope with one hand and surgical forceps and other tools with the other hand, and the medical staff had high work intensity and high physical exertion; 2 ) The front end of the sheath of the existing arthroscope is a straight tube, which cannot flexibly control the viewing angle of the arthroscope, and there is a dead angle that cannot be observed during the operation; 3) When the arthroscope is used for knee surgery, in order to facilitate the arthroscope to enter the joint space To explore all positions in the joint is the surgical operation. It is necessary to change the flexion and extension of the patient’s knee joint, that is, the valgus and valgus angle at any time according to the surgical operation requirements of the surgeon. Adjust the position, the activity of the knee joint further enhances the labor intensity of the operator
