Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of medical instruments, and particularly relates to a gallbladder duct intubation catheter with selectable direction. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, endoscopic transpapillary gallbladder drainage (ETGBD) has become an effective and safe procedure for the clinical treatment of acute cholecystitis, especially in cases with bleeding tendency, thrombocytopenia, ascites, or anatomical changes that make percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage (PTGBD) impossible.

[0003] During the operation, after successful transpapillary bile duct cannulation, contrast agent is injected for cholangiography to clarify the course and morphology of the common bile duct and cystic duct. After confirming the bifurcation of the cystic duct, selective bifurcation of the cystic duct is performed (it is often necessary to first pass the guide wire into the cystic duct, and then the catheter enters the cystic duct and gallbladder along the guide wire in sequence). However, due to the various changes in the morphology of the bifurcation of the cystic duct, the guide wire is often unable to enter the cystic duct smoothly. Figure 1 It is the branching morphology of the existing cystic duct.

[0004] Therefore, how to superselect the guidewire to the cystic duct becomes the key issue for the success of this technology. Due to the combined effects of factors such as the diameter of the common bile duct, the number and size of gallstones compressing the cystic duct, the direction of the cystic duct, and the spiral Heister valve (spiral folds in the cystic duct), the opening position of the confluence of the cystic duct and the common bile duct may change in various ways, and these changes may require the operator to repeatedly try to find the cystic duct with the guidewire.
