Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of medical instruments, and in particular relates to a filling material filler for ear endoscopic surgery. Background Art

[0002] Opening the mastoid under otoscope is a very common method in middle ear mastoid surgery. After the lesions are removed, a large cavity is often left. During the recovery process after the operation, these mastoid cavities need a long time to epithelialize, and at the same time, they need to match a larger ear canal opening. If the ear canal opening is not large enough, on the one hand, it will affect the epithelialization process, resulting in a long-term inability to dry the ears, or even infection; causing the patient to undergo a second operation; on the other hand, a small ear canal opening will also affect the postoperative cleaning of the large mastoid cavity; therefore, opening the mastoid cavity and performing concha molding surgery at the same time is a conventional treatment method for otologists in the past; in order to shorten the postoperative recovery time, avoid a larger mastoid cavity and ear canal opening, and meet the needs of patients after mastoid surgery to wear hearing aids; while completely removing the lesions, bone powder is used to fill the mastoid cavity and epitympanic cavity;

[0003] The filling material currently used is ear cartilage, but ear cartilage is an autologous tissue material. After filling, it will be gradually absorbed by the human body, causing the cavity to collapse. Therefore, the inventor uses bone cement material to fill the mastoid cavity and epitympanic cavity after surgery. The cavity can always be kept full, and the bone cement will not be absorbed by the human body. It replaces ear cartilage and has a good effect.

[0004] Due to the narrow ear canal, there are no dedicated tools for filling the mastoid cavity and epitympanic cavity. Currently, bone cement is injected using a device modified from a syringe. Since the head of the syringe is short, a suitable hose needs to be found for connection before injection. In addition, since bone cement itself is a viscous material, it is difficult to push it out of the syringe during injection, and the injection rate is uneven, which can easily lead to different injection amounts. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides a filling material filler for ear endoscopic surgery. The filling tube at the head end of the filler has plasticity and can be plasticized according to the ear canal and the conditions in the ear, so that it conforms to the structure in the ear and smoothly fills the mastoid cavity or the epitympanic cavity. In addition, the bone cement filling tube is provided with an auxiliary holding rod. In view of the sticky characteristic of bone cement, the bone cement can be better pushed out by leveraging the auxiliary holding rod. For the pushing part, a pushing force control uniform speed structure is also provided, so that the pushing speed can be maintained.

[0006] In order to achieve the above technical objectives, the utility model is implemented through the following technical solutions:

[0007] A filling material filler for ear endoscopic surgery, comprising: a filling cylinder, a filling tube, a push rod, a piston, and a holding rod;

[0008] The filling tube is detachably mounted at the head end of the filling tube; the filling tube is plastic; a piston is movably mounted in the filling tube, the piston is connected to one end of a push rod, and the other end of the push rod extends out of the filling tube; a holding rod is connected to the rear end of the filling tube and is perpendicular to the filling tube;

[0009] Preferably, the filling tube is provided with a feeding port near the head end, so as to facilitate timely replenishment of bone cement during use;

[0010] Preferably, a spring is connected between the rear end of the piston and the rear end of the filling cylinder; due to the buffering effect of the spring, the injection force can be assisted in correcting the injection force during the injection process to avoid excessive injection force and uneven injection.

[0011] Preferably, the holding rod is vertically installed at the tail end of the filling cylinder in a movable manner. The specific movable installation structure is: an adjustment rail is connected to the filling cylinder, and the bottom end of the holding rod is movably installed in the adjustment rail; a locking knob is installed on the adjustment rail, and the locking knob can lock and fix the holding rod;

[0012] Preferably, the filling tube is divided into three layers, from outside to inside: a silicone layer, a shaping layer, and a silicone layer;

[0013] Preferably, the shaping layer is made of aluminum strip material;

[0014] Preferably, a seepage hole is provided on the side wall of the filling tube head end, and the direction of the seepage hole is inclined at 60°.

[0015] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0016] Compared with the simple injection operation using a syringe, the filler provided by the utility model for ear endoscope surgery has a slender filling tube with plasticity, which can adapt to the structure in the ear canal and more accurately fill the bone cement into the mastoid cavity and the epitympanic cavity.

[0017] In addition, the utility model is provided with a holding rod on the filling tube, and the holding rod is held by hand, and then the thumb is used for pushing. The holding rod can be used as a force support point to push out the bone cement more easily, and it can also be operated with one hand;

[0018] A spring is connected between the piston and the bottom surface of the filling cylinder. Through the buffering auxiliary effect of the spring, the thrust can be balanced to avoid excessive thrust causing uneven bone cement discharge. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
