Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of prostatic urethra, in particular to a prostatic urethra dilation catheter capable of expanding the visual field and visualizing the prostatic urethra. Background Art
[0002] Prostatic hyperplasia is a very common disease in urology clinic and the most common disease in middle-aged and elderly men that can cause urination disorders. From a histological point of view, prostatic hyperplasia is manifested as hyperplasia of the prostatic stroma and glands. From an anatomical point of view, prostatic hyperplasia is manifested as an increase in prostate volume. From a symptom point of view, prostatic hyperplasia is mainly manifested as lower urinary tract symptoms. From the perspective of objective urodynamic examination, prostatic hyperplasia manifests as bladder outlet obstruction. The dilation catheter is used in the treatment of prostatic tissue dilation surgery to preserve the original organ and function, with minimal trauma and a high safety factor.
[0003] In the existing technology, the camera is placed in the catheter and moved forward along the catheter. Since the diameter of the camera is small, it is easy to bend when entering the catheter, which will cause the camera connecting line to bend; it needs to be taken out, and the camera connecting line needs to be reset and then inserted again, which wastes time and increases the risk factor. Then, the visible area of the path of the catheter entering the human body during surgery is small. For example, when observing different positions, the catheter needs to be moved back and forth. If the path is wrong, it is easy to cause damage to the human body. Finally, the camera will be damaged when working for a long time. Since the camera is small and is mostly connected by welding, when the camera is damaged, the camera and the connecting line need to be replaced as a whole, resulting in a waste of resources. Therefore, we propose a prostate urethra dilation catheter that can expand the field of view and visualize the prostate. Summary of the invention
