[0040] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiment of the utility model clearer, the technical solution in the embodiment of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiment of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiment is a part of the embodiment of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiment of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0041] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", "axial", "radial", "circumferential" and the like indicate orientations or positional relationships based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0042] In the present invention, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "install", "connect", "connect", "fix" and the like should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection, an electrical connection, or a communication connection; it can be a direct connection, or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements, unless otherwise clearly defined. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0043] The following specific embodiments are used to describe the technical solution of the utility model in detail. The following specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be described in detail in some embodiments.

[0044] As described in the background technology of this application, currently for small lung nodules larger than 1 cm, doctors can determine the location of small lung nodules by naked eye observation and finger palpation. However, when the size of a small lung nodule is less than 1 cm, the failure rate of the positioning method by naked eye observation and finger palpation is greatly increased, and there is a risk of excessive range during surgical resection and increased patient trauma. Currently, the commonly used positioning methods for small lung nodules before surgery include: CT-guided metal hook positioning, injection of methylene blue staining positioning, intraoperative ultrasound positioning, etc.

[0045] The inventors of this application have found that all of the above methods have some shortcomings: methylene blue injection positioning is only suitable for superficial nodule positioning, and changes in injection dose and time may cause large-area staining, resulting in positioning failure; intraoperative ultrasound has advantages for untouchable nodules, but requires repeated confirmation of the lesion location during surgery, which is complicated and time-consuming, and has high requirements for operators and equipment; metal hook positioning has a high success rate and few complications, but because the wire remains in the chest wall after positioning, the patient must undergo surgery immediately after positioning, which limits the application of this technology to a certain extent. Therefore, how to accurately locate small lung nodules before surgery is a problem faced by every thoracic surgeon.

[0046] In order to solve the above problems, the inventor of the present application proposed the technical solution of the present application, and the specific embodiments are as follows:

[0047] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of a pulmonary nodule puncture positioning needle in an embodiment of the utility model, Figure 2 In the embodiment of the utility model Figure 1 The proximal enlargement of Figure 3 is a schematic diagram of a positioning mark assembly in an embodiment of the utility model, Figure 4 is a schematic diagram of the positioning marker in the embodiment of the utility model when it is contracted, Figure 5 In the embodiment of the utility model Figure 4 The proximal enlargement of Figure 6 Schematic diagram of the needle tube seat in the embodiment of the utility model, Figure 7 Schematic diagram of the inner tube seat in the embodiment of the utility model, Figure 8 It is a schematic diagram of a connection socket in an embodiment of the utility model.

[0048] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the lung nodule puncture positioning needle of this embodiment includes: an outer tube 1, an inner tube 2 and a positioning marking component 3.

[0049] The outer tube 1 of the puncture positioning needle is a hollow tube, and a through channel is provided in the axial direction of the outer tube 1. The outer tube 1 comprises a needle tube 12 and a needle tube seat 11. The needle tube seat 11 is arranged at the proximal end of the needle tube 12, and the distal end of the needle tube 12 is in an inclined needle tip shape to facilitate puncture.

[0050] The positioning mark component 3 includes: a positioning mark 31 .

[0051] The positioning marker 31 is made of shape memory material, and is slidably disposed in the channel of the outer tube 1, and is located at the distal end of the outer tube 1. The positioning marker 31 made of shape memory material has shape memory characteristics, and when installed, the positioning marker 31 is placed in the channel of the outer tube 1 of the puncture positioning needle in a straight line.

[0052] The shape memory material may be a nickel-titanium-based shape memory alloy (Ni-Ti SMA), a copper-based shape memory alloy (CuSMA), an iron-based shape memory alloy (Fe SMA), etc. Specifically, the nickel-titanium-based shape memory alloy may be Ni-Ti-Cu, Ni-Ti-Co, Ni-Ti-Fe, Ni-Ti-Nb, etc.; the copper-based shape memory alloy may be Cu-Zn, Cu-Zn-Al, Cu-Zn-Sn, Cu-Zn-Si, Cu-Zn-Ga, Cu-Sn, etc.; the iron-based shape memory alloy may be Fe-Pt, Fe-Mn-Si, Fe-Ni-Co-Ti, Fe-Mn-Al-Ni, Fe-C-Mn-Si-Cr-Ni, etc.

[0053] The inner tube 2 is inserted into the channel of the outer tube 1, the distal end of the inner tube 2 abuts against the positioning marker 31, and the proximal end of the inner tube 2 extends out of the needle tube seat 11. The inner tube 2 is used to push the positioning marker 31 out of the needle tube 12. After the positioning marker 31 is pushed out of the needle tube 12 of the puncture positioning needle, it returns to the shape of a preformed J-hook and is firmly fixed on the pulmonary nodule.

[0054] In this embodiment, the positioning markers in the outer tube 1 of the puncture positioning needle are in a contracted state in the shape of a letter "I". When in use, under the guidance of the CT machine, the puncture positioning needle is inserted into the target position of the patient's lesion, and the inner tube 2 is pushed, and the inner tube 2 pushes the positioning marker 31 out of the needle tip of the needle tube 12 (pushes out the puncture positioning needle). After pushing out the puncture positioning needle, the positioning marker 31 self-expands and recovers to a predetermined J-shaped hook, and is firmly anchored on the patient's pulmonary nodule.

[0055] It is not difficult to find from the above content that the lung nodule puncture positioning needle of this embodiment is provided with an outer tube 1, an inner tube 2 and a positioning marker assembly 3. The outer tube 1 is provided with a through channel. The positioning marker assembly 3 includes: a positioning marker 31. The positioning marker 31 is slidably arranged in the channel of the outer tube 1. The inner tube 2 is arranged in the channel of the outer tube 1 and is used to push the positioning marker 31. The positioning marker 31 is a J-shaped hook positioning structure when it is extended out of the outer tube 1. In the lung nodule puncture positioning needle of this embodiment, the CT machine determines the position of the lung nodule. Under the guidance of the CT machine, the outer tube 1 of the puncture positioning needle is inserted into the target position of the patient's lesion and pushes the inner tube 2. The inner tube 2 pushes the positioning marker 31 out of the needle tip of the puncture positioning needle (pushes out the puncture positioning needle). After the puncture positioning needle is pushed out, the positioning marker 31 self-expands and recovers to a predetermined J-shaped hook. The J-hook positioning marker 31 forms resistance with the patient's lung parenchyma, and is positioned at the patient's lung nodule, effectively positioning the marker. The expandable stent structure of the positioning marker 31 helps the doctor to locate the position by touch during the operation, so that the surgical resection position can be more precise.

[0056] Optional, such as Figure 3 As shown, in the lung nodule puncture positioning needle of this embodiment, the distal end of the positioning marker 31 is provided with a barb 311. After the positioning marker 31 is pushed out of the outer tube 1, it returns to a predetermined J-shaped hook shape in the human body, and the barb 311 at the distal end forms resistance and anchors with the lung parenchyma. The J-shaped hook and the barb at the distal end cooperate to play a double anchoring role, effectively preventing the positioning marker 31 from shifting, and further helping the doctor to touch and locate by hand during the operation to clarify the surgical resection site.

[0057] Furthermore, the pulmonary nodule puncture positioning needle in this embodiment, the positioning marker assembly 3 also includes: a connecting piece 32 and a developing line 33, the developing line 33 is arranged at the proximal end of the positioning marker 31, the connecting piece 32 is sleeved on the positioning marker 31, and the developing line 33 is fixedly connected to the positioning marker 31 through the connecting piece 32. The developing line 33 is used to display the shape and position of the puncture positioning needle in the patient's body, so as to observe the state and position of the puncture positioning needle in real time.

[0058] Optionally, the connecting member 32 is a riveted tube, and two ends of the riveted tube are respectively sleeved with the developing line 33 and the positioning marker 31 .

[0059] In this embodiment, the development line can be developed under CT, which facilitates the determination of the positioning depth of the positioning marker.

[0060] Furthermore, in the lung nodule puncture positioning needle in this embodiment, the developing line 33 includes a coating layer and a developing wire, wherein the coating layer is coated on the outside of the developing wire, and the coating layer is an ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fiber layer, so that the developing line 33 has a certain hardness while maintaining flexibility, thereby avoiding hiding and floating of the line.

[0061] Furthermore, in one embodiment, if Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the inner tube 2 includes an inner tube seat 21 and a pusher 22 . The inner tube seat 21 is disposed at the proximal end of the outer tube 1 , and the proximal end of the pusher 22 is connected to the inner tube seat 21 . The pusher 22 is used to push the positioning marker 31 out of the outer tube 1 .

[0062] In one embodiment, if Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the puncture positioning needle also includes a connecting card seat 4, which is arranged between the needle tube seat 11 and the inner tube seat 21, and the connecting card seat 4 is rotatably connected to the inner tube seat 21. The connecting card seat 4 is used to define the initial position of the needle tube seat 11 and the inner tube seat 21, and can also serve as a bearing auxiliary structure to facilitate and stably push the positioning marking component 3.

[0063] In this embodiment, when the positioning marker 31 is compressed in the outer tube 1, the needle tube seat 11, the connecting seat 4 and the inner tube seat 21 are in the same line ( Figure 5 As shown), the connecting card seat 4 keeps the needle tube seat 11 away from the inner tube seat 21, ensuring that the positioning marker 31 is not pushed out by the pusher 22 in the outer tube 1; when it is necessary to release and push out the positioning marker 31, the connecting card seat 4 is rotated, that is, the connecting card seat 4 is rotated relative to the inner tube seat 21 until the inner tube seat 21 is separated from the connecting card seat 4. In this embodiment, when the connecting card seat 4 is perpendicular to the inner tube seat 21, the inner tube seat 21 is separated from the connecting card seat 4 ( Figure 2As shown in the figure, when the connecting base 4 rotates, the needle tube seat 11 and the inner tube seat 21 approach each other, and the distal end of the inner tube 2 pushes the positioning marker 31 out of the outer tube 1. In other embodiments, the relative rotation angle between the inner tube seat 21 and the connecting base 4 is not limited, as long as the inner tube seat 21 can be separated from the through groove of the connecting base 4.

[0064] In one embodiment, a through slot 43 is provided on the top surface of the connecting socket 4 , and the pushing member 22 passes through the through slot 43 of the connecting socket 4 and is fixedly connected to the inner tube socket 21 .

[0065] In one embodiment, a connecting portion is provided at one end of the connecting socket 4 close to the inner tube seat 21, and a receiving groove 42 is provided at one end of the connecting socket 4 close to the needle tube seat 11; the inner tube seat 21 is provided with a matching portion, the matching portion and the connecting portion are limited in position, and the matching portion can rotate relative to the connecting portion.

[0066] For example, Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the connection part is set as a protruding column 41, and the matching part is set as a mounting groove 211; during assembly, the protruding column 41 is inserted into the mounting groove 211, and the protruding column 41 can rotate in the mounting groove 211, thereby realizing the rotation of the inner tube seat 21 relative to the connecting clamp 4. Of course, in another optional solution, the protruding column can also be set on the inner tube seat 21, and correspondingly, the connection part on the connecting clamp 4 can be set as a mounting groove.

[0067] In one embodiment, if Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, the needle tube seat 11 is provided with a connecting block 111. When the needle tube seat 11, the connecting block 4 and the inner tube seat 21 are in the same line, the connecting block 111 of the needle tube seat 11 is embedded in the receiving groove 42 of the connecting block 4, so that the needle tube seat 11 is fixed in the receiving groove 42, thereby increasing the stability of the pushing member 22 during movement.

[0068] Further, such as Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, a circular convex ring 112 is provided at the proximal end of the needle tube seat 11, and an annular groove 212 is provided at the inner tube seat 21. When the needle tube seat 11 and the inner tube seat 21 are close to each other, the circular convex ring 112 of the needle tube seat 11 is inserted into the annular groove 212 of the inner tube seat 21, so that the axes of the needle tube seat 11 and the inner tube seat 21 are consistent, and the needle tube seat 11 and the inner tube seat 21 are mutually limited and positioned to ensure smooth movement of the push member 22.

[0069] Further, such as Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the inner tube seat 21 is provided with a limiting protrusion 213, and the needle tube seat 11 is provided with a limiting groove 113. When the needle tube seat 11 and the inner tube seat 21 are close to each other, the limiting protrusion 213 of the inner tube seat 21 is inserted into the limiting groove 113 of the needle tube seat 11, so as to limit the circumferential rotation of the needle tube seat 11. Of course, in other embodiments, the manner in which the inner tube seat 21 limits the circumferential rotation of the needle tube seat 11 is not limited to the above description or the figure, for example, the needle tube seat 11 may also be provided with a limiting protrusion, and the corresponding inner tube seat 21 may be provided with a limiting groove, and the limiting protrusion is engaged with the limiting groove.

[0070] Optionally, in the lung nodule puncture positioning needle in this embodiment, the circumferential outer wall of the outer tube 11 is provided with scale marks 101 at equal intervals, and the scale marks 101 are used to indicate the puncture depth of the puncture positioning needle.

[0071] Furthermore, the pulmonary nodule puncture positioning needle in this embodiment, the positioning marker 31 is formed by 3D printing, and the steps of printing and forming are:

[0072] 1) Establish a three-dimensional model of the J-hook;

[0073] 2) Decompose the 3D model into thin slices with a thickness of 25 to 45 μm to form a scanning path for 3D printing;

[0074] 3) preparing a mixed powder material, wherein the mass ratio of nickel to titanium is 40-60:40-60; and delivering the mixed powder material to a molding chamber;

[0075] 4) Evacuate the molding chamber and then inject high-purity inert gas; repeat 3 times;

[0076] 5) Import the scanning path into the molding equipment and set the processing parameters: laser spot diameter is 50-70μm, laser power is 80-140W, scanning rate is 150-300mm / s, scanning spacing is 40-110μm, and powder thickness is 25-45μm;

[0077] 6) Melt the metal powder according to the scanning path to form a thin sheet, and stack it layer by layer until a J-shaped hook component is formed.

[0078] Among them, the preferred processing parameters are: power 100 W, scanning rate 200 mm / s, scanning spacing 80 μm, and powder thickness 30 μm.

[0079] The working process of the pulmonary nodule puncture positioning needle of the utility model is as follows:

[0080] ① First, determine the location of the lung nodule by CT, and then send the puncture positioning needle to the target location under the guidance of CT, so that the positioning marker 31 is located at the target location;

[0081] ② Rotate the connecting block 111 to be perpendicular to the inner tube seat 21, push the pusher 22 to the bottom through the inner tube seat 21, so that the positioning marker 31 moves along the channel in the needle tube 12 to the outside of the distal end of the needle tube 12 and is released;

[0082] ③ Pull out the inner tube 2 completely, withdraw the needle tube 12, so that the needle tip is located between the outer wall of the chest cavity and the lung, and then insert the pusher 22 of the inner tube 2 into the needle tube 12 to completely push out the imaging line 33 and the positioning marker 31;

[0083] ④Finally, pull out the needle tube 12 and the inner tube 2 together.
