Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of laparoscopic surgery application, in particular to a laparoscopic thyroid skin retractor. Background Art

[0002] With the development of modern medicine, minimally invasive surgery has become the development direction of surgical operations today. Minimally invasive surgery has the characteristics of less trauma, faster recovery and less pain, and has become the common goal and direction pursued by modern medicine. In some aspects, laparoscopic technology has gradually replaced traditional surgery. Laparoscopic thyroid surgery is a cosmetic surgery that has been highly praised in recent years. That is, puncture incisions are made on both nipples or under the lips. This incision has the effect of hiding the surgical wound. The puncture cannula creates space for thyroidectomy. On the basis of achieving the surgical procedure required by the thyroid gland, there will be no surgical scars on the neck. The scars are hidden on the chest and lower lip, achieving both complete surgical treatment of thyroid diseases and cosmetic effects. During laparoscopic thyroid surgery, the difficulty of the operation will increase due to the small space. The neck skin often needs to be suspended to increase the operating space of the surgical site. However, the current suspension method is mostly to suture the skin on the neck and perform neck traction. Since the suture traction method requires suturing the skin on the neck, it is an invasive method, and the traction is point-like traction, that is, the sutures can be pulled, and the skin other than the suture points will be sunken, resulting in uneven traction during the operation. At the same time, after the operation, the skin sutures on the neck will bleed, congestion, edema, etc. will occur, which brings confusion to doctors and patients that needs to be solved.

[0003] Inventive Content

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a laparoscopic thyroid skin retractor, which can effectively solve the problems existing in the background technology.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: a laparoscopic thyroid skin retractor, comprising an adhesive plate, a traction plate, a traction wire, a traction ring, a traction rubber strip, a metal plate, and a fixing ring; characterized in that: the adhesive plate and the traction plate are connected to each other on the front and back sides; one end of the traction wire is connected to the metal plate, and the other end is connected to the fixing ring; one end of the traction rubber strip is connected to the fixing ring, and the other end is connected to the traction ring; the metal plate is fixedly connected to the traction plate.

[0006] Furthermore, the adhesive plate is an adhesive plate surface that can be adhered to the skin.

[0007] Furthermore, the pulling plate is a plate surface for fixing a metal plate in the middle of the reverse side of the pasting plate.

[0008] Furthermore, the pulling wires are four inelastic pulling wires fixed between the metal plate and the fixing ring.

[0009] Furthermore, the pulling rubber strip is an elastic rubber strip fixed between the pulling ring and the fixing ring.

[0010] Furthermore, the pulling ring is circular and can be connected to a support on a surgical bed in an operating room.

[0011] Furthermore, the metal plate is a flat plate made of metal material that can be folded and bent as needed.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the laparoscopic thyroid skin retractor adopts the device of the present invention. When performing thyroid surgery under laparoscopy, the device can non-invasively retract the skin of the thyroid neck, so that the space of the thyroid surgery area is significantly increased, which brings convenience to the surgeon. When in use, the metal plate of the device is bent into the curvature structure of the patient's neck according to the curvature of the patient's neck, and then the adhesive plate is pasted on the patient's premenstrual skin, and the retraction ring is suspended on the fixed bracket on the operating table in the operating room. Under the elastic retraction of the retraction rubber strip, the skin of the neck can be retracted. Since the adhesive plate in front of the neck retracts the entire surface of the skin of the neck, the retraction is uniform and clearly exposed, which increases the surgical space of the surgeon. The adhesive plate is a medical adhesive material with high viscosity and is not easy to fall off. The metal plate is in the middle of the retraction plate, so the adhesive plate will not be pulled off during the retraction process. After the surgery, after the adhesive plate is removed, the skin of the patient's neck is intact and there is no obvious wound. Compared with the existing aspirator, the device is safe and effective, and the retraction is quick and convenient. The safety and convenience of surgical operations are significantly improved.

[0014] In the accompanying drawings, there are: adhesive plate 1, pulling plate 2, pulling wire 3, pulling ring 4, pulling rubber strip 5, metal plate 6, fixing ring 7. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0015] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0016] See also Figure 1The present invention provides a technical solution: a laparoscopic thyroid skin retractor, comprising an adhesive plate 1, a traction plate 2, a traction wire 3, a traction ring 4, a traction rubber strip 5, a metal plate 6, and a fixing ring 7; characterized in that: the adhesive plate 1 is connected to the traction plate 2 on the front and back sides; one end of the traction wire 3 is connected to the metal plate 6, and the other end is connected to the fixing ring 7; one end of the traction rubber strip 5 is connected to the fixing ring 7, and the other end is connected to the traction ring 4; the metal plate 6 is fixedly connected to the traction plate 2.

[0017] Furthermore, the adhesive plate 1 is an adhesive plate surface that can be adhered to the skin.

[0018] Furthermore, the pulling plate 2 is a plate surface of the adhesive plate 1 on which the metal plate 6 is fixed in the middle.

[0019] Furthermore, the pulling wires 3 are four inelastic pulling wires 3 fixed between the metal plate 6 and the fixing ring 7 .

[0020] Furthermore, the pulling rubber strip 5 is an elastic rubber strip fixed between the pulling ring 4 and the fixing ring 7 .

[0021] Furthermore, the pulling ring 4 is circular and can be connected to a support on a surgical bed in an operating room.

[0022] Furthermore, the metal plate 6 is a flat plate made of metal material that can be folded and bent as needed.

[0023] The specific connection structure of the instrument of the present invention is: the instrument will be a laparoscopic thyroid traction plate, and the connection structure of each part is that the adhesive plate 1 is a sticky rectangular plate surface that can be pasted on the skin in front of the neck, and the back of the adhesive plate is a traction plate 2. The traction plate 2 and the adhesive plate 1 are tightly pasted together. A metal plate 6 is fixed in the central part of the traction plate 2. The metal plate 6 is a thin metal plate surface that can be bent and folded at will. There are four inelastic traction wires 3 around the metal plate 6, which are evenly fixed around the metal plate 6. The other end of the traction wire 3 is connected to the fixing ring 7, and the distal end of the fixing ring 7 is connected to the traction rubber strip 5. The traction rubber strip 5 is a rubber strip with an elastic structure, and the other end of the traction rubber strip 5 is connected to the traction ring.

[0024] The benefit of the present invention is that during laparoscopic thyroid surgery, due to the small operating space of the thyroid gland in the neck, it is often necessary to suspend the skin in front of the neck to increase the operating space. The commonly used method is to pull the skin in front of the neck with sutures, which will cause tissue bleeding, edema, congestion, etc. after surgery. The present laparoscopic thyroid skin retractor only needs to paste the skin in front of the neck where the thyroid surgery area needs to be pulled. Since the metal plate 6 is a metal plate that can be bent and folded at will, it can adapt to patients with various neck curvatures. The pasting plate 1 is a viscous material with strong adhesive material, which can conveniently adhere to the skin in front of the neck. The metal plate 6 is in the center of the pulling plate, so it will not fall off during pulling. The pulling wires 3 are evenly distributed around the metal plate 6, which can ensure that the pulling force of the pulling wires 3 is uniform and consistent. The pulling rubber strip 5 is a structure with elastic rubber material fixed between the fixing ring 7 and the pulling ring 4, which can ensure that the pulling force is consistent and uniform during the pulling process. This instrument is a planar traction device, that is, it can pull the skin in front of the neck with uniform and consistent force to ensure that the pulling force is consistent and uniform, and the exposure is clearer. After clinical use, this laparoscopic thyroid skin retractor is easy to use, non-invasive, flexible in pulling, and significantly improves the safety during surgical operations.

[0025] The specific use and operation method of the device of the present invention is as follows: during laparoscopic thyroidectomy, the device can be used to perform non-invasive traction in front of the thyroid tissue during the surgical operation. The specific use method is as follows: before the operation, B-ultrasound positioning is first performed to determine the surgical site and the position of the thyroid gland, and then the adhesive plate 1 of the device is attached to the skin in front of the thyroid gland of the patient's neck. During the attachment, the curvature of the metal plate 6 can be adjusted so that the metal plate 6 is bent into the curvature structure of the patient's neck to better fit the curvature of the patient's neck. Then, the traction ring 4 of the device is suspended on the bracket on the operating table. According to the space required for traction, the height of the bracket on the operating table is adjusted so that the traction rubber strip 5 has a certain elastic force. At this time, the traction rubber strip 5 can tightly suspend the traction fixing ring 7, and the fixing ring 7 can pull the traction wire 3 upward. The traction wire 3 is fixed on the metal plate 6, that is, there is an upward pulling force on the metal plate 6. Finally, under the traction action of the traction ring 4, the adhesive plate 1 is pulled upward, and the skin in front of the patient's neck is pulled together, thereby increasing the operating space for thyroid surgery, improving the safety of the surgery, and reducing the operation time, which is worthy of clinical promotion.

[0026] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
