Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of surgical forceps, and in particular to a novel surgical grasping forceps for thyroid surgery. Background Technology

[0002] A thyroid tumor is a fluid-filled cyst found in the thyroid gland. The lump is round, usually 2-5 cm in diameter, smooth, and generally painless or only slightly painful, moving up and down with swallowing. Most are solitary nodules, with multiple nodules being less common. When the pressure within the thyroid cyst is not high, the texture is relatively soft; if there is more fluid, the texture will be firmer. Thyroid tumors are usually asymptomatic unless the tumor is very large or there is bleeding within it, in which case some symptoms of compression may occur, such as pain, difficulty swallowing, difficulty breathing, and hoarseness.

[0003] When the thyroid gland is large, the surface tension is high, making it difficult to effectively clamp and pull with traditional instruments. Excessive pulling can also cause the thyroid tumor to rupture and bleed, especially large tumors larger than 4 cm, including giant nodular goiters and large thyroid tissue in hyperthyroidism. Utility Model Content

[0004] The present invention aims to provide a novel surgical grasping forceps for thyroid surgery to solve the problems of traditional instruments being unable to effectively grasp and pull, as well as excessive pulling leading to rupture and bleeding of thyroid tumors.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A novel thyroid surgical grasping forceps includes a forceps bar and a forceps tail, as well as a forceps head, wherein the forceps head is annular and is bent inward at a certain arc.

[0007] Furthermore, the diameter of the pliers head is 3 to 5 cm.

[0008] Furthermore, the inward bending angle of the pliers head is 45° to 90°.

[0009] Furthermore, the pliers head, pliers bar, and pliers tail are integrally formed.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0011] This invention uses a circular clamp head that bends inward at a certain arc to surround the bottom and sides of the thyroid cyst, effectively holding the thyroid tumor by cradling its sides and bottom. This avoids the problems of traditional instruments being unable to effectively clamp and pull, as well as the thyroid tumor rupture and bleeding caused by excessive pulling.

[0014] 1. Pliers bar; 2. Pliers tail; 3. Pliers head. Detailed Implementation

[0015] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments:

[0016] like Figure 1 As shown, a novel thyroid surgical grasping forceps includes a forceps bar 1 and a forceps tail 2, as well as a forceps head 3. The forceps head 3 is annular in shape with a diameter of 3-5 cm, and the lower end of the forceps head 3 is bent inward at a certain arc angle of 45-90°. The forceps head 3, forceps bar 1, and forceps tail 2 are integrally formed.

[0017] This invention utilizes a circular clamp head 3 that bends inward at a certain arc to surround the bottom and sides of the thyroid cyst, effectively holding the thyroid tumor, especially larger tumors larger than 4 cm, including giant nodular goiters and large thyroid tissues in hyperthyroidism. This avoids the problems of limited gripping and traction with traditional instruments due to the high surface tension when the thyroid gland is large, as well as the risk of thyroid tumor rupture and bleeding due to excessive traction. This invention effectively avoids these problems.

[0018] The above descriptions are merely embodiments of this utility model. Commonly known technical solutions and / or characteristics are not described in detail here. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the technical solution of this utility model. These modifications and improvements should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model, and will not affect the effectiveness of the implementation of this utility model or the practicality of the patent. The scope of protection claimed in this application should be determined by the content of its claims, and the specific embodiments described in the specification can be used to interpret the content of the claims.
