Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical devices, in particular to a choledochoscope lithotripsy basket. Background Art
[0002] Gallstones are a common and frequently occurring disease in my country, including gallbladder stones, intrahepatic bile duct stones, and common bile duct stones. Stones blocking the cystic duct or bile duct can induce complications such as acute cholecystitis, acute cholangitis, obstructive jaundice, and acute biliary pancreatitis, and can even lead to life-threatening septic shock. Long-term irritation from stones carries the risk of gallbladder and bile duct cancer.
[0003] Choledochoscopic lithotripsy is one of the commonly used surgical options for hepatobiliary surgery to treat gallbladder and intrahepatic and extrahepatic bile duct stones. A stone removal basket is an essential device for choledochoscopic lithotripsy. Various types of stone removal baskets currently in use are composed of an outer sheath, a basket, and a handle. The basket is usually composed of four basket wires, forming various shapes such as spherical, diamond, and raindrop shapes. The four basket wires are intertwined at the head ends and connected to a metal connecting rod after converging at the tail ends. The four basket wires can be retracted into the outer sheath to facilitate the basket's entry into the choledochoscope's forceps; the four basket wires are pushed out of the outer sheath to form balloons of different diameters, making it easier to remove stones of different diameters.
[0004] The following problems exist in clinical practice: 1. The basket cavity formed after the four basket wires are completely pushed out of the outer sheath is the largest, the distance between the four basket wires is consistent, and the basket shape is stable. It is mainly used to remove larger stones, but smaller stones can easily be dislodged through the gaps between the basket wires. 2. To remove smaller stones, the basket connecting rod can be pulled back, and the basket wires can enter the outer sheath. The basket cavity at the tip of the outer sheath becomes smaller, which can prevent small stones from being dislodged through the gaps between the basket wires. It is also possible to push out some of the basket wires to form a basket cavity of appropriate size, which is convenient for removing smaller stones. However, some of the basket wires are located in the outer sheath cavity, and some of the basket wires are located at the tip of the outer sheath. The spacing between the four basket wires is difficult to maintain consistent, resulting in an unstable basket shape, making it difficult to remove smaller stones. Removal of stones is also prone to being dislodged between adjacent basket wires with the largest spacing. Utility Model Content
