Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of medical device technology, and more specifically to an anal fistula cutting device. Background Technology
[0002] An anal fistula is a granulomatous tract around the anus, and also an inflammatory disease of the skin and soft tissues. This inflammatory sinus tract connects the rectum and anal canal with the surrounding soft tissues, containing inflammatory granulation tissue or filled with purulent tissue, with a small amount of discharge draining from the opening. In simple terms, an anal fistula is like a "tunnel" between the rectal wall and the perianal skin, an infectious channel between the anal canal and the perianal skin. It primarily affects the anal canal and the surrounding muscle tissue, and is a common and frequently occurring anorectal disease. Its internal opening is located near the dentate line, and its external opening is located on the perianal skin, often failing to heal for many years. Most anal fistulas form after the rupture or incision and drainage of an anorectal abscess. As the abscess gradually shrinks, intestinal contents continue to enter the cavity. During the healing and shrinking process, scarring often forms, hindering drainage and healing. Over time, many scar tissues accumulate around the cavity, forming a chronic infectious tract. The clinical manifestations of anal fistula include purulent discharge. Newly formed fistulas discharge more purulent discharge, and the secretions irritate the skin, causing itching and discomfort. When the external opening is blocked or falsely healed, purulent fluid accumulates in the fistula, causing local swelling, pain, and even fever.
[0003] Currently, the primary clinical treatment method is surgery. This involves inserting a probe through the external opening into the internal opening of the fistula and then removing the fistula along the direction of the probe, creating a "V"-shaped incision. This surgical treatment, because it involves cutting open the fistula to create an incision, has several risks: firstly, it can cause damage to the anal muscles and nerve tissue; secondly, the incision generally cannot be sutured and requires a long healing time; and thirdly, it may cause anal deformities, air and fluid leakage, and fecal incontinence.

[0045] The anal fistula cutter of the present invention operates as follows: First, the cutting seat of the activation component 11 is removed from the central shaft 18. Then, the central shaft 18 is passed through the fistula and reinstalled onto the cutting seat of the activation component 11 via threads. After adjusting the angle and orientation of the anal fistula cutter, the activation handle is activated. The arc-shaped protrusion 11-1 above the activation handle presses against the elastic pressure plate 21 to activate the activation circuit. At this time, the reduction motor 8 rotates forward, driving the drive gear 15 to rotate, which in turn drives the large gear meshing with the drive gear 15. The large gear rotates forward around the central shaft 18. Due to the meshing of the internal gear ring 10-1 and the transmission external thread 18-1, the large gear rotates and moves forward, driving the cutting blade 19 to rotate and move forward through the long tube 10-3. The inner single-side blade 19-1 of the cutting blade 19 cuts off the polyp in the fistula and stores it in the cylindrical cavity 19-2 during the process of rotating and advancing. When the inner single-sided blade 19-1 contacts the silicone pad 5-3, the geared motor 8 automatically stops running due to excessive resistance, or the positioning baffle 3-2 presses down the elastic pressure plate 21 of the return position switch 12, connecting the reverse circuit of the geared motor 8, and the above-mentioned rotary cutting process ends.
[0046] The return process of the anal fistula rotary cutter is as follows: The positioning baffle 3-2 has a U-shaped groove structure, including a front baffle 3-2-1 and a rear baffle 3-2-2. The external gear ring 10-2 is located within the U-shaped groove of the positioning baffle 3-2, and its rear end face is initially in contact with the rear baffle 3-2-2. During the rotary cutting process, the front end face of the external gear ring 10-2 contacts the rear baffle 3-2-2 and drives the positioning baffle 3-2 forward. The positioning baffle 3-2 continuously presses down the elastic pressure plate 21 of the return position switch 12 until the reverse circuit of the reduction motor 8 is activated. The reduction motor 8 rotates in the reverse direction, driving the long gear 15 to drive the large gear to rotate in the reverse direction. The long tube 10-3 rotates in the reverse direction while retracting, simultaneously driving the rotary cutter 19 to rotate in the reverse direction while retracting. When the rear end face of the external gear ring 10-2 contacts the rear baffle 3-2-2, it pushes the positioning baffle 3-2 to move along the return slide groove 22 until the pressure block 3-3 returns to the initial position. The elastic pressure plate 21 of the return position switch 12 then springs up again, disconnecting the reverse circuit of the geared motor 8, and the return process ends.
[0047] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
