Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to medical instrument technical field, especially a single ball sac pusher for the stone impacted under ERCP. BACKGROUND

[0002] Extrahepatic bile duct stone is a common and frequently-occurring disease in China, with the continuous development of endoscopic technology and the continuous improvement of its accessories, extrahepatic bile duct stones are mostly taken by endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) lithotomy. Compared with traditional open or modern laparoscopic bile duct exploration and stone surgery, ERCP has the advantages of small trauma, high safety factor and rapid recovery.

[0003] Currently, the consumables used for ERCP stone extraction are mainly stone extraction balloon and stone extraction basket. Small stones are often extracted by balloon, and stones with a diameter of more than 1 cm are mostly extracted by basket. In the process of ERCP removing bile duct stones, when the stones fall off from the basket, they are easy to be impacted in the lower segment of the common bile duct. Since the size of the lower segment of the common bile duct is small, it is difficult to fish again with the basket at this time, which affects the normal progress of the stone extraction surgery, and only surgical stone extraction can be performed, increasing the pain and economic pressure of the patient. UTILITY MODEL CONTENT

[0004] The utility model aims at the problem that in the process of ERCP removing bile duct stones, when the stones fall off from the basket, they are easy to be impacted in the lower segment of the common bile duct, since the size of the lower segment of the common bile duct is small, it is difficult to fish again with the basket at this time, which affects the normal progress of the stone extraction surgery, and provides a single balloon pusher for the stone impacted under ERCP.

[0005] A single balloon pusher for the stone impacted under ERCP, comprising

[0006] A rubber inner core is provided with a zebra guide wire penetrating through it;

[0007] A balloon is fixedly sleeved at the front end of the rubber inner core; a first channel is further provided on the rubber inner core, and a connecting port is provided on the front end side wall of the first channel, which is in communication with the interior of the balloon;

[0008] The front end of the rubber inner core is integrally provided with a front end inner core.

[0009] Further, the diameter of the front end of the front end inner core gradually increases towards the rear end.

[0010] Further, a sheath tube is further slidably provided on the inner core, and the sheath tube is located at the rear side of the balloon.

[0011] Further, a three-way valve is provided at the inlet end of the first channel.

[0012] Further, the balloon is provided with fixed rubber at the front and rear ends.

[0013] The utility model discloses the beneficial effect is: through the improvement of the existing stone taking balloon, add the inner core of a certain hardness front end, cooperate the expansion function of balloon, can again push the patient's impacted calculus into the upper segment of bile duct wider, the stone is conveniently fished again in net basket, need not carry out surgical operation, alleviate the patient's distress and economic pressure.
