Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of medical instruments, and in particular relates to a double-knot pusher for transsphenoidal endoscopic surgery. Background Art

[0002] Endoscopic transsphenoidal surgery often requires skull base reconstruction. The operating space for nasal surgery is relatively narrow. At this time, a knot pusher is needed to push the knot from outside the nasal cavity to the deep part to complete the knotting. Existing knot pushers are mainly used for laparoscopy and arthroscopy, and cannot be used in neuroendoscopic surgery. Transsphenoidal endoscopic surgery cannot use existing instruments to complete related operations, resulting in difficulty in knotting after suturing the dura mater during skull base reconstruction. Therefore, it is very necessary to develop a knot pusher that can be used in neuroendoscopic surgery. Summary of the invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a double-knot pusher for transsphenoidal endoscopic surgery.

[0004] The objective of the present invention is achieved in this way. A double-knot pusher for transsphenoidal endoscopic surgery comprises a sleeve and an operating handle, wherein the operating handle comprises a first finger ring and a second finger ring, the first finger ring and the second finger ring are hingedly connected, the rear end of the sleeve is fixed to the handle extension of the first finger ring, and the sleeve is characterized in that a connecting rod is arranged in the sleeve, the rear end of the connecting rod is fixed to the handle extension of the second finger ring, a first push-knot ring is arranged at the working end of the connecting rod, a second push-knot ring is arranged away from the first push-knot ring and toward the operating handle, and the first push-knot ring and the second push-knot ring are arranged side by side along the axial direction of the sleeve.

[0005] Beneficial effects of the present invention:

[0006] The present invention is suitable for tying knots after suturing in skull base reconstruction surgery during transsphenoidal endoscopic surgery. The device is provided with two knot-pushing rings, which can tie two knots at a time. At the same time, the planar structure of the working surface of the knot-pushing ring ensures that the suture will not slip out during the process of pushing the knot head. Secondly, the knot head can be pushed into place more accurately and tightened, thereby reducing the difficulty of skull base knotting, improving the success rate of skull base reconstruction, and reducing the risk of postoperative cerebrospinal fluid leakage. The use of the device has little effect on the postoperative wound and almost no secondary trauma. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
