Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of biopsy sampling technology, specifically a device for biopsy sampling of the lumbar intervertebral space via transforaminal puncture. Background Technology

[0002] In the medical field, particularly in the diagnosis and treatment of spinal diseases, precise sampling of the intervertebral disc for pathological examination or bacterial culture is crucial. This process is irreplaceable for diagnosing infections, inflammation, tumors, and assessing the degree of intervertebral disc degeneration. Traditional sampling methods often rely on open surgery or relatively crude puncture techniques, which are not only complex and invasive but also have limited accuracy in localization, increasing patient suffering and the risk of complications.

[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, transforaminal lumbar puncture has been developed in recent years. This technique uses a specially designed needle to enter the intervertebral space through the natural passage of the lumbar intervertebral foramen, significantly reducing damage to surrounding tissues and improving the precision and safety of the procedure. However, the design of existing puncture needles still has shortcomings, particularly in terms of positioning accuracy and ease of operation. Most puncture needles lack precise graduation markings, making it difficult for doctors to accurately determine the needle tip position during the puncture process, leading to sampling deviations and affecting the accuracy of diagnostic results.

[0004] Furthermore, although the use of a puncture cannula provides a channel for subsequent insertion of biopsy forceps, the coordination and stability of the puncture process and sampling operation still need to be improved. Especially in complex cases, ensuring that the puncture needle can remain stably in the target position while facilitating precise clamping of the target tissue by the biopsy forceps is one of the challenges currently facing the technology.

[0005] To address the problems raised in the background art, those skilled in the art have proposed a transforaminal lumbar intervertebral space biopsy sampling device. Utility Model Content

[0006] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides a transforaminal lumbar intervertebral space biopsy sampling device. The scale set on the outside of the puncture needle allows the doctor to judge and adjust the needle tip position in real time during the puncture process, while ensuring the stability and safety of the entire puncture and sampling process.

[0007] A transforaminal lumbar intervertebral disc biopsy sampling device includes a puncture needle, a puncture cannula sleeved on the outer side of the puncture needle, a first handle threadedly connected to the outer side of the top of the puncture cannula, and a connecting sleeve installed on the top of the first handle; a trephine tube is also installed on the inner side of the connecting sleeve, and a second handle is installed on the top of the trephine tube.

[0008] Preferably, the trephine tube extends into the puncture cannula for biopsy sampling, and the outer wall of the puncture needle is provided with graduations for observing the insertion depth.

[0009] Preferably, the puncture cannula, the connecting sleeve, and the first handle form a cavity for placing the puncture needle and the trepanation tube, and the inner ring at the bottom end of the trepanation tube is toothed.

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

[0011] 1. The scale on the outside of the puncture needle makes it easy for doctors to manage the insertion depth and position, which facilitates subsequent sampling. The puncture needle can also serve as a guide, which facilitates the subsequent insertion of the puncture cannula and sampling with the trephine tube. Attached Figure Description

[0012] Figure 1 This is a three-dimensional structural diagram of the present invention;

[0013] Figure 2 This utility model Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure after the puncture needle and puncture cannula are combined.

[0014] In the diagram: 1. Puncture needle; 2. First handle; 3. Puncture cannula; 4. Connecting sleeve; 5. Second handle; 6. Tremella tube. Detailed Implementation

[0015] The embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model.

[0016] As attached Figure 1 To be continued Figure 2 As shown:

[0017] Example 1: According to Figure 1-2As shown, this utility model provides a transforaminal lumbar intervertebral disc biopsy sampling device, including a puncture needle 1. A puncture cannula 3 is fitted onto the outer wall of the puncture needle 1. A first handle 2 is threaded onto the outer side of the top of the puncture cannula 3. A connecting sleeve 4 is installed on the top of the first handle 2. A trephine tube 6 is also installed on the inner side of the connecting sleeve 4. A second handle 5 is installed on the top of the trephine tube 6. The markings on the outer side of the puncture needle 1 allow doctors to easily manage the insertion depth and position, facilitating subsequent sampling. The puncture needle 1 also serves as a guide. To facilitate subsequent insertion of the puncture cannula 3 and sampling with the trephine tube 6, the bottom ends of the puncture needle 1, puncture cannula 3, and trephine tube 6 are equipped with pointed tips to facilitate puncture operations. The diameter of the puncture needle 1 is 2mm and the length is 20cm. The diameter of the puncture cannula 3 is 3.5mm and the length is 15cm. The length of the trephine tube 6 is longer than that of the puncture cannula 3, and the length of the puncture cannula 3 is consistent with the 0 mark on the trephine tube 6. When the bottom end of the trephine tube 6 is inserted into the puncture cannula 3 and is level with the bottom end of the puncture cannula 3, the mark on the trephine tube 6 is level with the top end of the puncture cannula 3.

[0018] The trephine tube 6 extends into the puncture cannula 3 for biopsy sampling. The outer wall of the puncture needle 1 is marked with graduations for observing the insertion depth. The puncture cannula 3, the connecting sleeve 4, and the first handle 2 form a cavity for placing the puncture needle 1 and the trephine tube 6. The inner end of the trephine tube 6 has a toothed ring, which facilitates tissue sampling.

[0019] Working principle: When this device is needed, the puncture needle 1 is first inserted into the designated position. After confirming that the puncture needle 1 is in the correct position, the doctor inserts the puncture cannula 3 along the puncture needle 1. The design of the puncture cannula 3 should ensure its stability in the body while minimizing irritation to surrounding tissues.

[0020] Biopsy Procedure: After inserting the trocar 3, the physician inserts the trephine tube 6 into the intervertebral space through the trocar. The trephine tube 6 is designed to facilitate precise trephination of the target tissue within a confined space. Alternatively, biopsy forceps can be used to clamp the target tissue through the trocar 3. Sampling and Withdrawal: After trephination, the trephine tube 6 returns the tissue sample to the body for pathological examination or bacterial culture. Once sampling is complete, the physician withdraws the trocar 3 from the body.

[0021] Sampling and withdrawal: After clamping the target tissue, the trephine tube 6 returns the tissue sample to the outside of the body for pathological examination or bacterial culture. After sampling is completed, the doctor withdraws the puncture cannula 3 and the puncture needle 1 together from the body.
