Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of vascular anastomosis instruments, and in particular to a vascular anastomosis instrument. Background Art

[0002] During major vascular anastomosis procedures such as liver, kidney, heart, and lung transplants, the most challenging and technically demanding step before transplantation is the repair and reconstruction of the donor and recipient's suprarenal arteries and veins. This process is crucial for surgical success and postoperative recovery. Shorter surgical times facilitate recovery after liver, kidney, heart, and lung transplants, maintaining systemic circulation as quickly as possible, reducing the incidence of complications, and facilitating the rapid regeneration of the graft.

[0003] Currently, vascular anastomosis is performed using an anastomotic ring. Each vessel stump is passed through its corresponding ring, and the intima of the stump is then turned inside out, allowing the vessel wall to be threaded onto the ring's needle for securement. Finally, the two rings are snapped together to complete the anastomosis. Compared to suturing with needle and thread, anastomotic rings provide a tighter connection between the two vessels, resulting in a better anastomosis.

[0004] However, when using an anastomotic ring to anastomose blood vessels, doctors still need to manually fix the vascular wall of the broken end of the blood vessel on the various needles of the anastomotic ring. This operation needs to be repeated many times. The operation is difficult and time-consuming. In addition, it is difficult for doctors to control the degree of traction and eversion of the blood vessel wall during each fixation, which can easily lead to inconsistent extension of the blood vessel wall at each fixed position, thereby resulting in poor vascular anastomosis effect.

[0039] To make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more readily apparent, specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following description sets forth numerous specific details to facilitate a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention can be implemented in many other ways than those described herein, and those skilled in the art may make similar modifications without departing from the scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0040] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being "fixed to" another element, it may be directly attached to the other element or there may be an intermediate element. When an element is referred to as being "connected to" another element, it may be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intermediate element. The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "left," "right," and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only implementation methods.

[0041] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art of the present invention. The terms used in this specification of the present invention are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0042] like Figure 1-11 As shown, a vascular anastomosis device provided in this embodiment includes an anastomosis portion 1, an anastomosis ring 2, a fixing mechanism 3 and a positioning mechanism 4.

[0043] See also Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 10 Two clamping parts 11 are installed on the top of the anastomotic part 1. The clamping parts 11 are used to install the anastomotic ring 2. The anastomotic part 1 is used to drive the two clamping parts 11 to move closer to or away from each other.

[0044] It should be noted that, before the blood vessel stump is fixed on the anastomotic ring 2 , the two clamping portions 11 should be in a state of being away from each other.

[0045] like Figure 10 As shown, in one embodiment, a sliding groove 12 is formed at the top of the anastomotic portion 1, and a driven rod 13 is disposed transversely within the sliding groove 12, capable of axial rotation. The surface of the driven rod 13 has two symmetrically arranged threaded segments with opposite rotation directions, and a first bevel gear 131 is mounted at the junction of the two threaded segments. The bottoms of the two retaining portions 11 are slidably mounted within the sliding groove 12 and are respectively transmission-connected to the two threaded segments. Rotating the driven rod 13 can drive the two retaining portions 11 toward or away from each other. Furthermore, an active rod 14 is mounted within the anastomotic portion 1, capable of axial rotation. One end of the active rod 14 extends through the bottom of the anastomotic portion 1 and is provided with an anastomotic knob 141, which facilitates operation and rotation of the active rod 14 at the bottom of the anastomotic portion 1. The other end of the active rod 14 extends through the top of the anastomotic portion 1 and is provided with a second bevel gear 142. The second bevel gear 142 is located within the sliding groove 12 and is transmission-connected to the first bevel gear 131.

[0046] During specific use, the driven rod 13 can be driven to rotate by rotating the active rod 14, thereby driving the two clamping parts 11 to move closer to or away from each other, which is conducive to convenient control during surgery.

[0047] In one embodiment, the retaining portion 11 includes a support column 111 and a U-shaped buckle 112. The support column 111 is slidably mounted within the sliding groove 12 and extends upward. The support column 111 is used to elevate the U-shaped buckle 112, freeing up operating space for the fixing mechanism 3 and the positioning mechanism 4. The anastomotic ring 2 can be directly inserted into or removed from the groove of the U-shaped buckle 112, facilitating rapid installation and removal of the anastomotic ring 2. To further free up operating space for the fixing mechanism 3 and the positioning mechanism 4, the U-shaped buckle 112 is further mounted on top of the support column 111 and extends outward from one side of the anastomotic portion 1.

[0048] See also Figure 1 、 Figure 9 and Figure 11 The anastomotic ring 2 is used to connect two blood vessel ends by anastomosis. When used, the blood vessel ends need to pass through the inner ring of the anastomotic ring 2. An anastomotic ring 2 is detachably mounted on each clamping portion 11. Specifically, Figure 11 As shown, the outer circumference of the anastomotic ring 2 is provided with a retaining groove 23, and the anastomotic ring 2 can be retained in the groove of the U-shaped buckle 112 through the retaining groove 23. A plurality of needle bodies 21 are evenly distributed on the circumference of the two anastomotic rings 2 facing each other. The needle bodies 21 are used for both anastomosis of the blood vessel stumps and for fixing the blood vessel stumps. The fixation is completed by hanging the blood vessel wall of the blood vessel stump on each needle body 21. A slot 22 is provided between each adjacent needle body 21 on the anastomotic ring 2. The two anastomotic rings 2 are connected by inserting each needle body 21 into the slot 22. Therefore, when the two anastomotic rings 2 are installed on the U-shaped buckle 112, the needle bodies 21 of each other need to be aligned with the slot 22 of the other party.

[0049] In order to make the connection more secure after the needle body 21 is inserted into the slot 22, specifically, a plurality of oblique spines arranged along the length direction of the needle body 21 can be provided on the needle body 21, and the direction of the oblique spines is opposite to the insertion direction of the needle body 21. Accordingly, a blocking block is provided in the slot 22 to prevent the needle body 21 from retreating after being inserted into the slot 22.

[0050] See also Figure 1 、 Figure 2 as well as Figure 5-Figure 9 The fixing mechanism 3 includes a driving assembly 31 and a calibration column head 32.

[0051] The calibration stud 32 is used to align with the center of each anastomotic ring 2 and move toward the center. Therefore, the size of the calibration stud 32 should be smaller than the size of the inner ring of the anastomotic ring 2 so that it can enter the inner ring of the anastomotic ring 2. One end of the calibration stud 32 is an end cap 321, which serves as an entry end that moves toward the center of the anastomotic ring 2. Preferably, the end cap 321 is conical in shape to facilitate alignment and entry into the inner ring of the anastomotic ring 2. The calibration stud 32 is located between the two anastomotic rings 2. A plurality of flaps 33 are evenly distributed circumferentially on the outer side of the calibration stud 32. The head end of each flap 33 is hinged to the calibration stud 32. The flaps 33 are used to turn the endothelium of the blood vessel stump outside.

[0052] like Figure 6 As shown, preferably, the number of the blades 33 is equal to the sum of the number of needle bodies 21 and slots 22 on one anastomotic ring 2, which is conducive to ensuring that the needle bodies 21 on both anastomotic rings 2 can be aligned with the blades 33. A notch 331 is provided at the end of each blade 33. When the calibration column 32 moves toward the anastomotic ring 2 and the blades 33 are unfolded, each needle body 21 can pass through the corresponding notch 331. In order to prevent the blood vessel wall from sliding and shifting when the blades 33 are everted against the vascular intima, preferably, each blade 33 is provided with a fixing spike 332 on both sides of the notch 331 on one side near the end 321. When the blade 33 is everted and abuts against the inner wall of the blood vessel, the fixing spike 332 can temporarily puncture the blood vessel wall for temporary fixation. After the blood vessel wall is hung on the needle body 21, the fixation can be canceled by retracting the blade 33. Moreover, the puncture point is adjacent to the fixing point of the blood vessel wall, which will not affect the final anastomosis effect of the blood vessel.

[0053] The driving assembly 31 is used to drive all the retaining pieces 33 to rotate synchronously, so that the ends of the retaining pieces 33 can approach or move away from the end head 321 .

[0054] Specifically, such as Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the drive assembly 31 includes an operating tube 311, a drive column 312, and a drive head 313. The operating tube 311 has a lumen 3111 within it. The calibration column head 32 is disposed at one end of the top of the operating tube 311, with the end 321 facing outward. The calibration column head 32 has a drive cavity 328 within it that communicates with the lumen 3111.

[0055] Furthermore, a first side groove 322 is formed on the sidewall of the calibration stud 32, corresponding to each abutment 33. The first side groove 322 connects the drive cavity 328 to the outside world. Each abutment 33 is hingedly connected to the first side groove 322 at one end near the end 321 and connected to the inner wall of the first side groove 322 via a first elastic member 323. The first elastic member 323 provides an elastic force that pushes the distal end of the abutment 33 toward the drive cavity 328. The drive head 313 is slidably mounted within the drive cavity 328, with its distal end positioned within the lumen 3111. Multiple abutment posts 3131 are uniformly distributed around the drive head 313, corresponding to each abutment 33. Each abutment post 3131 is positioned within the first side groove 322, with its distal end abutting the abutment 33. The drive head 313 is connected to the calibration stud 32 via a second elastic member 324, which provides an elastic force that moves the drive head 313 toward the lumen 3111. Preferably, in order to make the driving head 313 slide more smoothly, a plurality of second elastic members 324 are provided, and are respectively installed between each support column 3131 and the inner wall of the first side groove 322 .

[0056] The drive post 312 is slidably mounted within the lumen 3111, with its bottom end protruding from the operating tube 311. The top end of the drive post 312, facing the calibration column head 32, is inclined and abuts against the end of the drive head 313. Preferably, the end of the drive head 313, which is closest to the drive post 312, is rounded to facilitate inward movement of the drive post 312. The top end of the operating tube 311 is sealed to prevent the top end of the drive post 312 from protruding.

[0057] During use, the driving post 312 is squeezed inward to drive the driving head 313 into the driving cavity 328, thereby pushing the flap 33 to evert the blood vessel intima through the respective flaps 3131. After the blood vessel is threaded onto the needle body 21, the driving post 312 is pulled outward, and the driving head 313 slides toward the lumen 3111 under the elastic force of the second elastic member 324. The flap 33 is constantly in contact with the flaps 3131 and retracted under the elastic force of the first elastic member 323.

[0058] A pull-out tab may be provided at the bottom end of the driving column 312 to facilitate squeezing the driving column 312 inward or pulling it outward.

[0059] like Figure 7-Figure 9 As shown, in one embodiment, the calibration column head 32 has two second side grooves 325 disposed opposite each other on the side wall between the first side groove 322 and the end head 321. A fixing column 326 is slidably mounted in each of the second side grooves 325. A third elastic member 327 is connected between the two fixing columns 326. The third elastic member 327 can provide an elastic force to pull the two fixing columns 326 toward the drive cavity 328. A conical head 3132 is disposed at one end of the drive head 313 near the end head 321. The two side surfaces of the conical head 3132 respectively abut against the ends of the two fixing columns 326 that are close to each other.

[0060] When the drive head 313 moves into the drive cavity 328, it drives the conical head 3132 from between the two fixing posts 326, pushing them apart. The two fixing posts 326 are forced to slide outward. During use, the calibration post 32 is moved so that the outer ends of the fixing posts 326 are within the inner ring of the anastomotic ring 2. Then, the drive post 312 is pressed inward to secure the blood vessel wall between the fixing posts 326 and the inner wall of the anastomotic ring 2. This prevents the entire vessel from shifting when the flap 33 everts the intima, potentially leading to a failed fixation. Pulling out the drive post 312 immediately releases the fixation.

[0061] The first elastic member 323 , the second elastic member 324 and the third elastic member 327 may all be springs.

[0062] See also Figure 1-Figure 5 The positioning mechanism 4 is used to drive the calibration column head 32 to move between the two anastomotic rings 2 so that the end head 321 can be aligned with the center of the two anastomotic rings 2 and move toward the center.

[0063] In one embodiment, the positioning mechanism 4 includes a main column 41 and a rotating column 42. The main column 41 is mounted on the side of the anastomotic portion 1 where the U-shaped buckle 112 extends. A rotating hole 411 is provided in the main column 41, extending through the top and bottom thereof. A movable groove 412 is provided on either side of the rotating hole 411, adjacent to the two U-shaped buckles 112. The rotating column 42 is axially rotatably mounted in the rotating hole 411. Specifically, a rotating ring is circumferentially provided on the rotating column 42, and a rotating groove adapted to the rotating ring is provided in the rotating hole 411. Preferably, the bottom end of the rotating column 42 extends outside the rotating hole 411 and is circumferentially provided with an anti-slip ring to facilitate rotation of the rotating column 42 during surgery. A side receiving groove 421 is defined on one side of the rotating column 42. The operating tube 311 is slidably mounted within the side receiving groove 421, with both ends extending through the main column 41. When the operating tube 311 is positioned in the side receiving groove 421, the end 321 of the calibration column head 32 faces the side opening of the side receiving groove 421. Preferably, a pull tab can be provided at the bottom end of the operating tube 311 to facilitate sliding the operating tube 311 via the pull tab.

[0064] When the rotating post 42 rotates until the side receiving groove 421 is connected to a certain movable groove 412, the operating tube 311 can move into the movable groove 412, and the calibration column head 32 moves toward the anastomotic ring 2 on that side.
