Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, and more specifically to a breast gland fixation device. Background Technology
[0002] Breast ptosis is one of the most common and pressing problems in plastic and cosmetic surgery. Common influencing factors include increasing age, weight loss, postpartum or menopausal hormone decline, and breast overweight.
[0003] There are various surgical methods for treating breast ptosis, such as T-shaped inverted breast fixation, ring breast fixation, vertical breast fixation, and ring breast fixation. All of these are based on the repositioning and fixation of the mammary glands to achieve the purpose of breast reshaping.
[0004] However, current methods for fixing breast glands are limited to suture fixation. Due to the limited surgical field of view, the suture method is difficult to standardize during surgery. The distance and angle of internal rotation fixation mainly depend on the surgeon's experience, and the surgical results vary.
[0005] Secondly, the durability of suture fixation is also a concern. The tightness of the suture fixation is closely related to the doctor's knotting technique, which makes the duration of breast lift and internal rotation fixation after surgery uncertain for different doctors, ultimately affecting the surgical outcome.
[0006] To address these challenges, clinicians have been seeking a device that can be used in a standardized surgical procedure to lift and internally rotate breast tissue, thereby reducing the difficulty of the surgery. However, there has been no significant progress to date. Utility Model Content

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution, mainly including:
[0009] A breast gland fixation device comprises three parts: a needle body, a connecting tube, and a handle. The needle body consists of an arc-shaped needle body and a connecting insertion part. The head end of the arc-shaped needle body is conical for piercing the human skin layer, and the tail end is connected to the connecting insertion part, with the connection point being a first bend. A threading hole is provided at one-third of the distance from the head end of the arc-shaped needle body. The needle body is connected to the handle through the connecting tube, and the connecting insertion part is inserted into the connecting tube in a snap-fit manner. The connecting tube and the handle are connected by a snap-fit key.
[0010] Preferably, the angle between the arc-shaped needle body and the outer side of the connecting insertion part is the first bending part, and the first bending part is 120°; the arc of the arc-shaped needle body increases from the head end to the tail end, and the arc of the head end is smaller than the arc of the tail end.
[0011] Preferably, the connecting tube is divided into a slot and a vertical tube. The slot is provided with symmetrical protrusions, and a groove of the same shape is provided in the connecting insertion part to form an insertion connection.
[0012] Preferably, the connecting tube is connected to the handle via a vertical tube, and an insertion hole is provided at the end of the vertical tube, through which a locking key is passed to connect it to the handle.

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0024] Example 1
[0025] This embodiment provides a breast gland fixator for fixing breast tissue during breast surgery, ensuring the precision and safety of the procedure. The fixator consists of three parts: a needle body 1, a connecting tube 2, and a handle 3. The design and connection method of each part are as follows:
[0026] Needle body 1
[0027] Structural composition: The needle body 1 consists of an arc-shaped needle body and a connecting insertion part. The head end of the arc-shaped needle body has a conical structure, which facilitates piercing the human skin layer; the tail end connects to the connecting insertion part, and the connection point forms the first bending part 4.
[0028] The first bend 4: The angle between the arc-shaped needle body and the outer side of the connecting insertion part is 120°, that is, the first bend 4 is 120°. This design is ergonomic, facilitates operation by doctors, and reduces patient discomfort.
[0029] Curve design: The curvature of the curved needle gradually increases from the head to the tail, with the curvature at the head being smaller than that at the tail. This change in curvature allows the needle to better conform to the curve of the breast, improving the stability of the fixation.
[0030] Threading hole 5: A threading hole 5 is located one-third of the way from the tip of the curved needle body for threading the suture to secure the breast tissue. The position and size of the threading hole are precisely calculated to ensure the convenience and reliability of the suture operation.
[0031] Connecting pipe 2
[0032] Structural composition: The connecting pipe 2 consists of a slot 6 and a vertical pipe 7.
[0033] Slot 6 design: Slot 6 has symmetrical protrusions 8 that correspond to the grooves 9 of the same shape on the connecting insertion part, forming an insertion-type snap-fit. In this way, the needle body and the connecting tube can be quickly and securely connected and disconnected, facilitating the cleaning and sterilization of the instrument.
[0034] Vertical tube 7 design: Vertical tube 7 is used to connect connecting tube 2 and handle 6. An insertion hole is opened at the tail end of vertical tube 7 to facilitate connection with handle 6.
[0035] Handle 3
[0036] Connection method: The handle 3 is connected to the vertical tube 7 of the connecting tube 2 via a locking key 10. The locking key 10 passes through the insertion hole at the tail end of the vertical tube 7, firmly fixing the handle 6 and the connecting tube 5 together. This connection method is simple and reliable, making it easy for doctors to hold and operate during surgery.
[0037] Handle Design 6: The handle is ergonomically designed with a non-slip textured surface, increasing grip comfort and stability and reducing operator fatigue.
[0038] 4. How to use
[0039] Assembly: Insert the connecting insert of the arc-shaped needle body into the slot of the connecting tube 2, so that the protrusion 8 and the groove 9 engage to form a stable connection. Then, insert the tail end of the vertical tube into the handle and secure it with the locking key.
[0040] Fixing breast tissue:
[0041] The conical tip of the curved needle is inserted into the skin of the patient's breast and inserted into the appropriate position along the predetermined path.
[0042] Insert the suture through the suture hole of the curved needle, pass it around the breast tissue to be fixed, and then tie the suture to complete the fixation of the tissue.
[0043] Disassembly and sterilization: After the surgery, disassemble the fixation devices in reverse order. Disassembly is convenient because the components use insert-type snap-fit and key-type connections. The disassembled components can be cleaned and sterilized individually to meet medical and hygiene requirements.
