Embodiment Construction

[0027] figure 1 An instrument 10 is illustrated in , configured as a flexible probe and provided for use in an endoscope 11 . Endoscope 11 includes a working channel extending through instrument 10 . Furthermore, the endoscope 11 comprises at its proximal end 12 an operating unit 13 which acts to control the distal end 14 of the endoscope, eg to angle it laterally.

[0028] Apparatus 10 can be any apparatus suitable for use in the treatment of human or animal patients. It can in particular be a cryosurgical instrument, an electrosurgical instrument, a plasma surgical instrument or also an instrument for treatment with radio waves or light, for example a fiber optic instrument for the laser treatment of biological tissue. In the context of the present invention, it is important that the instrument 10 comprises an instrument body 15 having a flexible section 16 capable of being housed in one or more windings 17, 18, 19, as in figure 2 as shown in the diagram.

Abstract

The invention relates to an instrument (10) comprising an instrument body (15), which is configured in particular in an elongate and flexible manner. The invention relates to a winding device (10) which can be completely or partially wound in the form of at least one or more windings (17, 18, 19) and in this way can be stored in a space-saving and easy-to-manipulate manner. In order to hold the instrument body (15) in this position, a holding device (24) is provided, which is arranged on the instrument body (15) and is preferably held in such a way that it can not be detached. The holding device comprises a gripper (32) rotatably supported about the instrument body, the gripper (32) having a lock (34) capable of holding and fastening the windings (17, 18, 19). The gripper (32) can be manipulated with fingers of a hand used by a user to hold the instrument (10).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to instruments for the treatment of human and animal patients, in particular for endoscopic treatment. Background technique [0002] Probes for the surgical treatment of patients for endoscopic use are basically known from the prior art. For example, WO 03 / 00150 A1 discloses a detector for argon plasma coagulation. The instrument comprises an elongated instrument body with at least one flexible section. The flexible section is adapted for insertion into the working channel of the endoscope. [0003] During the use of an instrument on a patient, it may happen that the instrument has to be withdrawn from the working channel of the endoscope and put down temporarily, for example in a corresponding sterile bowl, for example in order to temporarily insert another instrument into the endoscope. in the working channel of the mirror. During the interim storage of the instrument in the sterile bowl or at another suitable locati...
