Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of medical instruments, in particular to an automatic flushing milling cutter device in neurosurgery craniotomy. Background Art
[0002] The automatic irrigation milling cutter device used in neurosurgery craniotomy is a precision instrument designed specifically for neurosurgery. It integrates irrigation and cutting functions and can automatically spray sterile saline or other irrigation fluids while the milling cutter is cutting the skull to remove bone chips and blood from the blade, keep the blade clean and sharp, and avoid a decrease in cutting efficiency due to bone chip accumulation. At the same time, the irrigation fluid can also cool the blade and the surgical area to reduce tissue damage caused by high temperature. The device is usually used in conjunction with a surgical microscope and a neuronavigation system to improve the accuracy and safety of the operation. Its use not only improves surgical efficiency and reduces operation time, but also reduces the risk of postoperative infection and complications by maintaining a clear surgical field. It is an indispensable and important tool in modern neurosurgery.
[0003] At present, when the milling cutter device is in use, sterile saline or other flushing fluid is continuously sprayed near the milling cutter through a nozzle. In this way, the bone chips and blood generated can be immediately washed away while the milling cutter is cutting the skull, which can reduce bleeding and congestion in the surgical field and provide better visualization, so that the surgeon can more accurately judge the effect of cutting depth and range. However, when the milling cutter is working, the bone chips and blood accumulated on the outer wall will block the surgical field of view, and the bone chips and blood on the milling cutter will increase the cutting resistance of the milling cutter and reduce the cutting efficiency. At present, when cleaning the milling cutter, the skull cutting needs to be stopped and then wiped with a sterile tool, resulting in a long pause time during craniotomy, which reduces the smoothness of the operation and increases the time of the operation. Therefore, an automatic flushing milling cutter device for neurosurgery craniotomy is proposed. Summary of the invention
