Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of medical devices, more particularly, it relates to a pancreatic duct stent. BACKGROUND

[0002] Pancreatic surgery is the most complex surgery in general surgery, and the related complications are particularly numerous, among which the complications related to pancreaticoduodenectomy and local resection of pancreatic tumor are the most numerous. In the past, a plastic tube was generally used as a pancreatic duct stent to support the pancreatic duct during pancreatic surgery, thereby reducing the incidence of pancreatic leakage complications. However, the plastic tube used in clinical practice needs to be cut to size, and the size of the side hole and the length of the middle hole-free segment cannot be strictly controlled. If the side hole is too small, the stent may be easily blocked, and if the middle hole-free segment is too short, bile in the small intestine may flow back to the anastomotic stoma through the side hole, activating pancreatic enzymes and increasing the risk of pancreatic leakage. Because the end of the cut tube is relatively sharp, there have been cases of postoperative pancreatic duct stent puncturing the small intestine and causing perforation. In addition, the stent needs to be fixed by knotting with sutures, which may slip in the short term after surgery, resulting in a lack of support. The above shortcomings increase the risk of complications after pancreatic surgery and seriously affect the quality of life of patients. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL

[0003] The present application aims to provide a pancreatic duct stent that prevents slippage, blockage, and damage, in order to reduce complications related to pancreatic surgery.

In one embodiment, the spacing between the two side holes 4 adjacent in the axial direction of the pancreatic duct stent is about 5 mm, and the diameter is about 1.5 mm; in another embodiment, the spacing between the two side holes 4 adjacent in the axial direction of the pancreatic duct stent is about 10 mm, and the diameter is about 2 mm; in another embodiment, the spacing between the two side holes 4 adjacent in the axial direction of the pancreatic duct stent is about 10 mm, and the diameter is about 2.5 mm.

[0025] With reference to Figure 1 , the middle of the second end 2 is provided with a plurality of side holes 4. The two side holes 4 adjacent in the axial direction of the pancreatic duct stent are uniformly spaced, with a spacing of 5-10 mm, and the side hole 4 has a diameter of 1.5-2.5 mm; the two side holes 4 adjacent in the radial direction of the pancreatic duct stent are staggered.
