Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of soft tissue lesion localization, in particular to a breast lesion marker and a puncture positioning device. Background Technique

[0002] As is well known, at present, for the diagnosis and treatment of occult breast lesions in clinical practice, how to accurately locate and obtain lesion tissues for pathological examination and clarify the nature of the lesions has become an urgent problem to be solved; at the same time, with the improvement of early breast cancer diagnosis technology and the increasing emphasis on comprehensive treatment, breast surgery has developed from the pursuit of radical surgical resection to the combination of surgery and comprehensive treatment, which has brought about a major change in the surgical treatment of breast cancer.

[0003] The accurate resection of clinically non-palpable breast lesions has become a major problem faced by surgeons. In the past, for such lesions as breast calcifications, only rough localization could be carried out, and then segmental resection of the breast was performed. However, this radical treatment method obviously no longer conforms to the current advocated principles of minimally invasive, accurate and safe surgical treatment, and is even less suitable for performing breast-conserving surgery for breast cancer. For occult breast lesions that cannot be palpated clinically, how to accurately locate during surgery and determine whether the lesion range reaches the negative resection margin is the key to whether breast-conserving surgery can be performed.

[0004] The currently clinically used positioning wire device guides the operation by leaving the tail of the positioning wire outside the patient's skin. Moreover, since the positioning wire can only be placed on the day of surgery, the free development of positioning is restricted, and the actual clinical process is not convenient. In addition, during the transportation and surgery of the patient in the positioning room and the operating room, the positioning wire may have complications such as breakage and displacement due to external forces. Therefore, it is necessary to propose a solution to this technical problem. Content of the Utility Model

[0005] (1) Technical Problem to be Solved

[0006] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the utility model provides a breast lesion marker and a puncture positioning device.

[0007] (2) Technical Solution

[0008] To achieve the above object, the utility model provides the following technical solution: A breast lesion marker and a puncture positioning device, including a puncture needle, a release device, a marker and a protective sleeve. The front end of the needle handle of the puncture needle is detachably connected to the protective sleeve. The marker is arranged inside the puncture needle. The release device is inserted into the puncture needle. The puncture needle includes a puncture needle handle. The front end of the puncture needle handle is fixedly connected to a puncture needle sheath. The rear end of the puncture needle handle is fixedly connected to a lock. The release device includes a push handle. The front end of the push handle is fixedly connected to a push rod.

[0009] Furthermore, the present utility model is improved in that before positioning, the marker is in a state of a straightened thin wire and is retained in a 20G puncture needle. After entering the target lesion, it is completely released into a spherical lantern shape, and the extended length of the spherical lantern is 40 - 70 mm.

[0010] Furthermore, the present utility model is improved in that one end of the marker is sharpened and the other end is flat.

[0011] Furthermore, the present utility model is improved in that the material of the marker is nitinol memory alloy.

[0012] Furthermore, the present utility model is improved in that the 10 mm area at the head end of the puncture needle sheath is subjected to sandblasting treatment.

[0013] (III) Beneficial effects

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present utility model provides a breast lesion marker and a puncture positioning device, which have the following beneficial effects:

[0015] For this breast lesion marker and puncture positioning device, a lock is adopted to fix the percutaneous entry depth of the puncture needle, effectively preventing the puncture needle from sliding in the Z-axis direction within the breast tissue, thereby accurately determining the puncture depth of the puncture needle;

[0016] To avoid the displacement problem caused by insufficient anchoring force after the marker combines with the tissue, the present utility model designs a spherical lantern structure, which not only has a large anchoring force, but also its unique three-dimensional structure enhances the imaging effect, making it easier to accurately locate and effectively remove small lesions;

[0017] The marker made of nitinol memory alloy, on the one hand, utilizes the memory function of the material, so that the marker is in a state of a straightened thin wire before positioning and can be retained in a 20G puncture cannula with a relatively small circumference, reducing the pain and discomfort of the patient during the puncture process. After entering the target lesion, it is completely released into a spherical lantern shape and is well anchored in the target lesion area. On the other hand, the marker has better imaging multimodal compatibility and can be positioned under the guidance of X-ray, B-ultrasound and magnetic resonance, and realizes the cross-image modal mutual verification of the positioning position. The marker of this kind of material has superelasticity and memory performance and can be completely released and formed in the tissue, reducing the difficulty of finding the target lesion area during postoperative tissue section examination.

[0018] The 10 mm area at the head end of the puncture needle sheath is subjected to sandblasting treatment, which is convenient for positioning the position of the needle tip through ultrasonic reflection during ultrasonic guidance. Description of the drawings
