[0002] In the field of aortic surgery, the definitive cure for aortic disease remains surgical reconstruction of the aorta and its branches. The mainstream vascular reconstruction method currently involves replacing diseased vessels with artificial blood vessels and anastomosing them with the retained native vessels using needle and thread suturing techniques.
[0003] Due to the large diameter of the aorta, the end-to-end anastomosis between the artificial blood vessel and the autologous blood vessel often takes a long time to connect the ends of the artificial blood vessel with the end of the autologous blood vessel. In addition, due to the differences in suturing experience and skills of the operating physicians, some aortic anastomoses may leak blood due to uneven suture density at the anastomosis, increasing the surgical risk for the patient. To further reduce anastomosis time and avoid anastomotic bleeding, the only way currently is for the operating physician to continuously train and improve anastomosis and suturing techniques. This method has a long learning cycle, different physicians have different learning abilities, and non-mechanized operations cannot achieve consistent anastomosis results.

[0038] The present invention provides an artificial blood vessel, comprising an artificial blood vessel base 1 and a skirt 2. The artificial blood vessel base 1 is connected to the skirt 2, and the artificial blood vessel base 1 can be connected to an autologous blood vessel 19. The skirt 2 is an annular structure, and the outer diameter of the skirt 2 is larger than the inner diameter of the autologous blood vessel 19. The skirt 2 is mounted on the outside of the artificial blood vessel base 1, and the skirt 2 can be connected to the autologous blood vessel 19. The skirt 2 is made of a flexible material.
[0039] The artificial blood vessel of the present invention includes an artificial blood vessel base 1 and a skirt 2. The skirt 2 is used to connect the artificial blood vessel base 1 with the autologous blood vessel 19, which effectively improves the anastomosis degree between the artificial blood vessel and the autologous blood vessel 19, avoids the problem of anastomotic bleeding, and reduces the difficulty of aortic surgery and anastomosis operation.
[0040] The present invention also provides an anastomosis device including the above-mentioned artificial blood vessel, which also includes a support assembly and a covering 3, wherein the support assembly includes an outward-turned umbrella 4, an umbrella frame 5 and an umbrella ridge 6, the umbrella frame 5 is an annular structure, the umbrella frame 5 is mounted on the outside of the artificial blood vessel matrix 1, one end of the umbrella ridge 6 is hinged to the umbrella frame 5 and an elastic member 7 is arranged between the two, there are multiple umbrella ridges 6, the outward-turned umbrella 4 is connected to the multiple umbrella ridges 6 to form an umbrella-shaped structure with an opening, the outward-turned umbrella 4 is located on the side of the umbrella ridge 6 close to the skirt 2; the covering 3 is a hollow cylindrical structure, the covering 3 can be slidably mounted on the outside of the support assembly, when the covering 3 is mounted on the outside of the support assembly, the free end of the umbrella ridge 6 is arranged close to the artificial blood vessel matrix 1, and when the covering 3 is detached from the support assembly, the outward-turned umbrella 4 can be against the skirt 2.
[0041] In the initial state of the artificial blood vessel anastomosis device of the present invention, the covering film 3 is sleeved on the outside of the supporting component, the elastic member 7 is compressed, and the supporting component is in a "folded" state. Figure 1 As shown, during operation, the artificial blood vessel is docked with the autologous blood vessel 19, and the skirt 2 is made of a flexible material. After being "folded", the skirt 2 extends into the autologous blood vessel 19 along with the artificial blood vessel base 1, and then the covering 3 is slid to move the covering 3 in the direction away from the autologous blood vessel 19. After the covering 3 is completely separated from the support assembly, under the action of the elastic member 7 restoring the deformation, the free end of the umbrella ridge 6 rotates in the direction away from the umbrella frame 5, and drives the everting umbrella 4 to move. At this time, the support assembly is in the "open" state. When the everting umbrella 4 is opened, the everting umbrella 4 pushes the skirt 2 to open and makes the end of the autologous blood vessel 19 everted. Figure 8 As shown, the skirt 2 facilitates the connection and anastomosis between the artificial blood vessel 19 and the native blood vessel 19. After the anastomosis is completed, the support assembly is withdrawn, and the umbrella-shaped structure with an opening formed by the everted umbrella 4 and the umbrella ridge 6 facilitates the withdrawal of the support assembly. The artificial blood vessel anastomosis device of the present invention utilizes the support assembly and the covering 3 to facilitate the end-to-end connection and anastomosis between the artificial blood vessel and the native blood vessel 19, reducing the difficulty of the anastomosis operation and the risks of aortic surgery.
[0042] It needs to be explained here that the vascular stent 13 is connected to the distal contraction section of the artificial blood vessel matrix 1. The transportation of the artificial blood vessel and the installation and release of the vascular stent 13 are common knowledge of those skilled in the art. Similarly, the skirt 2 is made of medical materials that meet the requirements of surgical operations, and the materials of other components are reasonably selected to avoid causing harm to the patient. These are common practices of those skilled in the art and will not be repeated here.
[0043] Since the artificial blood vessel may have branch blood vessels 8, the umbrella frame 5 is set to a split structure. When the support assembly is withdrawn, the umbrella frame 5 is split to avoid damaging the branch blood vessels 8 of the artificial blood vessel. In this specific embodiment, the umbrella frame 5 includes a first half ring 501 and a second half ring 502. Figure 10 One end of the first half ring 501 is hingedly connected to one end of the second half ring 502, and the other end of the first half ring 501 is clamped to the other end of the second half ring 502. When it is necessary to withdraw the umbrella frame 5, the clamped end is opened, and the first half ring 501 and the second half ring 502 rotate relative to each other, so that the umbrella frame 5 can be smoothly removed. The structure of the connection between the outward-turned umbrella 4 and the umbrella spine 6 is a non-closed structure with an opening, which facilitates the smooth withdrawal of the outward-turned umbrella 4 and the umbrella spine 6 along with the umbrella frame 5, effectively protecting the artificial blood vessel branch blood vessels 8.
[0044] Specifically, the support assembly also includes a connecting line 9, see Figure 1 One end of the connecting wire 9 is connected to the first half ring 501 or the second half ring 502, and the other end of the connecting wire 9 can be connected to the blood vessel delivery element 11. The connecting wire 9 can fix the axial position of the umbrella frame 5, avoid axial sliding and dislocation of the support assembly when the covering 3 slides, and improve the working reliability of the support assembly.
[0045] In this specific embodiment, the connecting wire 9 is made of metal material to improve the structural strength of the connecting wire 9. The connecting wire 9 is arranged parallel to the axis of the artificial blood vessel matrix 1. There are two connecting wires 9 to improve the force uniformity of the support component and avoid the rotational dislocation of the support component. The two connecting wires 9 are respectively arranged at the two ends of the first semi-ring 501 or the second semi-ring 502. In other specific embodiments of the present invention, multiple connecting wires 9 can also be set to further improve the stability and flexible adaptability of the support component. Two or more connecting wires 9 are all arranged on the first semi-ring 501 or the second semi-ring 502 to avoid affecting the opening and withdrawal action of the umbrella frame 5.
[0046] More specifically, the covering 3 is connected to a pull strip 10 that extends away from the skirt 2. The pull strip 10 facilitates sliding movement of the covering 3, further enhancing ease of operation. It should be noted that if the artificial blood vessel has branch vessels 8, the covering 3 can be sheared to prevent damage to the branch vessels 8 during sliding removal of the covering 3.
[0047] In addition, the outward-turning umbrella 4 is used to push the skirt 2 to unfold, thereby smoothly turning the end of the autologous blood vessel 19 outward. The provision of the outward-turning umbrella 4 improves the uniformity of force on the skirt 2, which is conducive to ensuring the uniform unfolding of the outer skirt 2, thereby making the subsequent connection and anastomosis between the skirt 2 and the autologous blood vessel 19 uniform and dense, and fully reducing the risk of anastomotic bleeding. Multiple umbrella spines 6 are evenly distributed circumferentially around the axis of the umbrella frame 5, improving the uniformity of force on the outward-turning umbrella 4. The elastic member 7 is a twisted spring, and the elastic member 7 corresponds to the umbrella spine 6 one-to-one. When the covering 3 is mounted on the outside of the support assembly, the elastic member 7 is compressed. When the support assembly is separated from the covering 3, under the force of the elastic member 7 restoring its deformation, the umbrella spine 6 flips over, driving the outward-turning umbrella 4 to open.
[0048] It should also be noted that the vascular transport element 11 can be extended into the artificial blood vessel matrix 1. The vascular transport element 11 uses the connecting rod 12 to extend into the distal contraction section of the artificial blood vessel matrix 1. During the operation, the vascular transport element 11 is used to transport the artificial blood vessel. The guide head 14 can provide guidance for the transportation of the artificial blood vessel matrix 1. The setting of the guide head 14 and the installation and release of the vascular stent 13 are both common means used by technical personnel in this field. The vascular transport element 11 is used to ensure the smooth progress of the surgical operation. In addition, the vascular transport element 11 is connected to a pull ring 15 to further improve the convenience of operation.
[0049] In other specific embodiments of the present invention, the artificial blood vessel anastomosis device further comprises an anastomosis device, which comprises a stapler 16 and a stapler cartridge 17. Figure 6 As shown, the stapler 17 is movably connected to the stapler base 16, and there are suture staples 18 in the stapler 17. There is a gap between the stapler 17 and the stapler base 16 that can accommodate the skirt 2 and the autologous blood vessel 19. The stapler 17 drives the suture staples 18 to move, fixing the artificial blood vessel base 1 and the autologous blood vessel 19. In actual operation, the anastomosis device can be set to a curved surface structure. For example, the anastomosis device is a semi-cylindrical surface. The suture staples 18 are first used to fix one side of the skirt 2 and the autologous blood vessel 19, and then the direction is changed to fix the other side of the skirt 2 and the autologous blood vessel 19; or, the anastomosis device is two symmetrical semi-cylindrical structures. The suture staples 18 can be used to fix the skirt 2 and the autologous blood vessel 9 at the same time, without the need for secondary operation, further improving the anastomosis efficiency. The stapler base 16 and the stapler 17 can be connected in a sliding manner or in a hinged manner to facilitate the operation of the suture staples 18.
[0050] Furthermore, the present invention also provides an artificial blood vessel anastomosis method, which utilizes the above-mentioned artificial blood vessel to extend the artificial blood vessel into the autologous blood vessel 19, and the outer diameter of the skirt 2 is larger than the diameter of the autologous blood vessel 19. During the anastomosis operation, the end of the autologous blood vessel 19 is turned outward, and an inclined surface is formed at the turned-out position. The skirt 2 is connected and fixed to the inclined surface at the turned-out position of the autologous blood vessel 19 to achieve the anastomosis of the artificial blood vessel and the autologous blood vessel 19, effectively improving the anastomosis degree between the artificial blood vessel and the autologous blood vessel 19 and reducing the risk of aortic surgery.
[0051] During aortic surgery, the aorta to be removed needs to be fully exposed, and then cut at the proximal and distal ends respectively to perform the anastomosis of the artificial blood vessel. When the distal end is cut, the remaining aortic opening will be exposed at the distal end of the incision. At this time, take out the artificial blood vessel with the appropriate specifications. The outer diameter of the skirt 2 of the artificial blood vessel is larger than the diameter of the aortic opening. Push the artificial blood vessel into the aortic opening in the antegrade direction until the skirt 2 is retracted proximally and the edge is flush with the edge of the opening, as shown in the figure. Figure 7As shown. Performing a first-level release, that is, sliding the membrane 3 to separate the membrane 3 from the support assembly, because the distal end of the aortic opening is not completely free and cannot move, the aortic opening is turned from the inside to the outside under the eversion of the umbrella 4, forming an inclined surface and adhering to the skirt 2 to form an anastomotic edge, as shown. Figure 8 As shown. The nail seat 16 and the nail magazine 17 are placed at the proximal and distal ends of the anastomotic edge. After the positions are adjusted appropriately, the nails 18 are fired to completely fix the skirt 2 and the everted aortic wall together to complete the aortic anastomosis. Figure 9 As shown. The present invention adopts a method of releasing the coating 3 and fixing the suture staples 18, which can quickly establish the anastomotic edge and perform anastomotic edge anastomosis. Compared with the needle and thread suturing method, the anastomosis time can be greatly shortened, and the density of the suture staples 18 in the staple cartridge 17 can be adjusted according to the actual working conditions, thereby achieving a uniform and dense fixation effect, thereby fully reducing the risk of anastomotic bleeding. After that, a secondary release is performed, that is, the pull ring 15 of the vascular delivery element 11 is withdrawn, so that the vascular stent 13 returns to its natural shape. Under the force of restoring the deformation, the vascular stent 13 drives the distal contraction section of the artificial blood vessel base 1 connected to it to return to a cylindrical shape, so that blood flow can flow from the artificial blood vessel beyond the skirt 2 into the distal aorta, and no abnormal fluid dynamics blood flow is formed near the anastomosis, thereby avoiding related risks. At the same time, the vascular stent 13 provides support for the aorta distal to the anastomosis, avoiding the risk caused by vascular collapse. Finally, the vascular delivery element 11 and its connected components are removed.
[0052] The present invention uses specific examples to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the present invention. The above examples are only intended to help understand the method and core concept of the present invention. At the same time, those skilled in the art will find that the specific implementation methods and application scopes may vary based on the concept of the present invention. In summary, the contents of this specification should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
