Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical devices, and particularly relates to a fixing device for a dilatation sheath tube for percutaneous biliary puncture and fistulation. Background Art
[0002] Biliary calculi can occur in the common bile duct, gallbladder and common hepatic duct, and can also occur in the confluence area of the left and right hepatic ducts and the intrahepatic biliary duct system; they can be diffusely multiple or limited to a certain hepatic segment or lobar bile duct. Due to the many branches of the intrahepatic bile ducts and possible anatomical variations, patients with a history of multiple biliary surgeries are prone to adhesions in the abdominal cavity, the liver is deformed by traction and inflamed and atrophied, and the location, quantity, size, etc. of biliary calculi are not the same. Therefore, the treatment of especially complex biliary calculi is relatively difficult. How to improve the stone extraction rate and minimize the invasiveness of treatment is the difficulty in the treatment of this disease.
[0003] The basic principle of minimally invasive surgical treatment of hepatolithiasis is still the "twenty-character" principle of "removing the focus, removing all stones, correcting stenosis, ensuring unobstructed drainage, and preventing recurrence". At present, the treatment of biliary calculi is mainly surgical. Traditional stone extraction surgical methods include open laparotomy and laparoscopic hepatectomy with bile duct exploration, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography for stone extraction, etc. However, traditional stone extraction surgeries are associated with large trauma, high costs, and slow postoperative recovery. Moreover, due to factors such as inflammation, anatomical stenosis, and easy stone residue, the postoperative stone recurrence rate can be as high as 70%. In addition, secondary stone extraction surgery causes great physical pain and economic burden to patients. In addition, with the development of the combined technology of choledochoscope, duodenoscope and laparoscope, the cure rate of multiple bile duct stones has been significantly improved, but there are still certain limitations in the treatment of complex intrahepatic and extrahepatic bile duct stones.
[0004] Percutaneous transhepatic cholangioscopic lithotripsy (PTCSL) uses an internal dilation sheath to establish a direct channel connecting the hepatic bile duct to the outside world, enabling the instruments to not come into direct contact with the hepatic tissue of the fistula tract throughout the process. It can directly reach the target bile ducts of grades III-IV in the patient's liver, effectively observing the states of bleeding, edema, etc. of the bile duct mucosa in the patient, and carefully observing the size, number, shape, etc. of the hepatobiliary duct stones in the patient. By dilating the sinus tract to 14F or 18F, rigid choledochoscopy can be performed simultaneously for lithotripsy and stone extraction. When the patient's fistula tract is dilated, a dilation sheath can be inserted. Since the dilation sheath tightly covers the bile duct with the stone, a direct channel connecting the hepatic bile duct to the outside world is established, avoiding the entry of lithotripsy into the patient's abdominal cavity and causing complications. And it is beneficial to flush out the lithotripsy with flowing water, improving the stone extraction efficiency. With the support and protection of the dilation sheath, the phenomena of fistula tract bleeding and bile peritonitis are avoided. Compared with the traditional stone extraction surgery, the operation of the internal dilation sheath combined with the rigid choledochoscope has the advantages of fast stone extraction, large quantity, and saving operation time. Currently, during clinical surgical operations, it is often necessary for the surgeon or assistant to fix the dilation sheath by hand. However, this method of fixing the sheath has the following problems: (1) It will impose a burden on the operation of the surgeon or assistant, and the fixer is prone to fatigue and unable to fix it for a long time; (2) The manual fixation has insufficient stability. When the surgical operation instruments enter and exit the dilation sheath, problems such as displacement and detachment of the dilation sheath are likely to occur, leading to surgical failure and even serious complications such as bile leakage and bleeding. Utility Model Content
[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a fixing device for the dilation sheath of percutaneous transhepatic biliary fistula. This fixing device for the dilation sheath can not only effectively fix the dilation sheath, but also be applicable to fixing dilation sheaths at different orientations and inclination angles, avoiding problems such as displacement and detachment when surgical operation instruments enter and exit, being beneficial to ensuring the smooth progress of surgical treatment, and reducing the work burden of the surgeon and assistant. The adopted technical solution is as follows:
[0006] A fixing device for the dilation sheath of percutaneous transhepatic biliary fistula, characterized in that it includes an abdominal wall fitting plate, a movable adjustment bracket, and a clamp for clamping the dilation sheath; an adhesive layer is provided on the bottom surface of the abdominal wall fitting plate, and a connecting block is provided on the top surface of the abdominal wall fitting plate; the movable adjustment bracket includes a plurality of connecting rods that are movably connected in sequence from top to bottom, the lower end of the lowermost connecting rod is installed on the connecting block, and the clamp is installed at the upper end of the uppermost connecting rod.
[0007] During the percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) procedure, a gastric tube and a urinary catheter are indwelled in the patient. After general anesthesia with tracheal intubation and surgical site disinfection, the target bile duct is punctured under real-time guidance of DSA and B-ultrasound. After bile is aspirated and seen, cholangiography is performed to confirm entry into the target bile duct. The condition of the bile duct is observed. Then, a disposable biliary dilator is slowly and gently advanced along the guide wire into the intrahepatic bile duct, and the fistula tract is gradually dilated from 8F to 14 - 18F. Then, a dilatation sheath is inserted. According to the position of the dilatation sheath, the abdominal wall fitting plate of the above-mentioned dilatation sheath fixing device is attached to the corresponding position on the patient's abdominal wall through its adhesive layer. Then, the relative positions between the connecting rods of the movable adjustment bracket are adjusted to change the height position and inclination angle of the clamp, so that the clamp is in a position where it can clamp the dilatation sheath, facilitating the clamping and fixing of the dilatation sheath by the clamp, and enabling the dilatation sheath to maintain a certain inclination angle and orientation position throughout the operation. Subsequently, the original super-stiff guide wire is retained, the end of the guide wire is passed through the working channel inside the rigid choledochoscope, and the choledochoscope is slowly inserted along the guide wire. At the same time, the water pressure is turned on, and the rigid choledochoscope is advanced along the guide wire into the sheath to explore the bile duct. This dilatation sheath fixing device can effectively fix the dilatation sheath, and is applicable to fixing dilatation sheaths at different orientations and inclination angle positions, which can avoid problems such as displacement and detachment during the entry and exit of surgical instruments, facilitating the smooth progress of the surgical treatment. Moreover, since there is no need for the surgeon and the assistant to hold the dilatation sheath during the operation, the work burden of the surgeon and the assistant is reduced.
