AI Technical Summary
In laparoscopic thyroid surgery, exposure of the recurrent laryngeal nerve is difficult, and the nerve exposure instruments often need to be inserted through the trocar puncture device, resulting in an excessively long path that occupies the surgeon's operating instrument channel and is not conducive to surgical coordination.
A miniature recurrent laryngeal nerve dissection tool was designed. It is inserted through the epidermis of the cervical surgical area, providing a short nerve exposure channel. It adopts a needle-like outer sheath, upper shaft, lower shaft, and head end structure, which is simple in construction. It directly assists the conventional channel without occupying the trocar channel. The shaft is adjustable in length and the head end is replaceable. Anti-slip texture increases friction, and a rubber piston ring seals the gaps.
This method enables rapid exposure of the recurrent laryngeal nerve, simplifies the surgical procedure, avoids difficulties in nerve exposure and air leakage, and improves the convenience and efficiency of the surgery.
