Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to medical instrument technical field, especially a nerve probe hook with cutting function. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the operation of spinal cord operation, often use nerve probe hook to explore the nerve root running, separate, release the compressed or adhesion with surrounding tissue nerve. Generally after separating the nerve from the surrounding tissue, gun pliers or blade is used to cut or remove the adhesion or compression soft tissue. But because the nerve probe hook is small, the gap formed after separating and releasing the soft tissue is not big, and the treatment site is mostly in the deep operation field, such as anterior cervical discectomy and fusion internal fixation (ACDF), after separating the gap between the dura mater and the posterior longitudinal ligament by the nerve probe hook, the space obtained by the separation is not enough to insert 1mm gun pliers, and the blade is mostly used to carefully cut off part of the ligament to expand the separation gap, and then the gun pliers is used to bite off the posterior longitudinal ligament. In this case, during the process of cutting off the ligament, because the operation field is deep, the nerve tissue is adjacent and close, and the dura mater has cerebrospinal fluid fluctuation, there is a great possibility of nerve damage or dura mater damage during the process of cutting off the blade. In other cases, after the nerve probe hook releases and separates the nerve and the surrounding tissue, the conventional operation is that one hand uses the nerve probe hook to pick up the soft tissue to be cut, and then the other hand uses the gun-shaped bone rongeur or surgical sharp knife to cut and disconnect; in this process, because the gap in the spine is small, there are many unexpected situations such as the operation forceps cannot enter, the cutting knife cannot enter, the cutting knife is not easy to control (easy to slide and damage other parts), etc. It is of great significance to the smooth and safe operation to safely cut off the adhesion tissue while the nerve probe hook releases and separates the small gap. SUMMARY
[0003] The utility model wants to solve the technical problem to provide a nerve probe hook with cutting function, the cutting knife is integrated on the nerve probe hook
