Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of medical device technology, specifically, it relates to a ureteroscopic incision knife, and more particularly to a ureteroscopic incision knife with a concealed blade and adjustable height. Background Technology

[0002] Ureteral stricture is a common disease of the urinary system, mostly caused by stones, infection, surgical injury, or congenital factors, and can lead to serious consequences such as hydronephrosis and kidney damage. Traditional open surgery for ureteral stricture is invasive and has a slow recovery, and is now rarely used. With the development of minimally invasive techniques, ureteroscopic internal incision has gradually become the mainstream, with holmium laser and cold knife being the commonly used tools. Holmium laser internal incision uses the thermal effect of high-energy laser to vaporize or cut the stricture tissue. Because its fiber is thin, it can be placed within the operating channel of an F6 / 7.5 fine ureteroscope, making it easy to reach the stricture. However, holmium laser can easily cause thermal damage to surrounding tissues, leading to surgical failure. Ureteroscopic cold knife internal incision can handle long strictures (≥2cm) that are difficult to address with holmium laser, and is safer for patients with severe periureteral adhesions. Because the cold knife directly cuts the stricture tissue, postoperative scarring is less, and the success rate is higher, especially for patients with recurrent strictures requiring secondary surgery. Cold knife internal incision eliminates the risk of thermal damage, avoiding the ureteral perforation or damage to surrounding tissues that may occur with holmium lasers, and reducing the risk of iatrogenic stricture. Furthermore, cold knife internal incision does not require complex laser equipment, making it suitable for widespread adoption in basic hospitals, and the surgical cost is significantly lower than that of laser treatment.

[0003] However, the ureteroscopic endoscopic cold knife currently used in clinical practice has a non-concealable blade and requires an F8 / 9.8 large-caliber ureteroscope for insertion. The larger ureteroscope increases the difficulty of insertion and makes it harder to reach the narrowed areas of the upper ureter, thus limiting the application of cold knife endoscopic incision. To overcome the shortcomings of existing ureteroscopic cold knives, we have invented this ureteroscopic endoscopic knife with a concealed blade and adjustable height. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the deficiencies in the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a ureteroscopic intraoperative incision knife.

[0005] According to the present invention, a ureteroscopic endoscopic incision knife includes an outer sheath assembly, a drive assembly, and a blade assembly.

[0024] like Figures 1-3 As shown, this utility model discloses a ureteroscopic endoscopic incision knife, including an outer sheath assembly 1, a drive assembly 2, and a blade assembly 3. The drive assembly 2 is disposed inside the outer sheath assembly 1, and the blade assembly 3 is fixedly connected to the left end of the drive assembly 2. A notch groove 4 is opened on the upper side of the left end of the outer sheath assembly 1, and the blade assembly 3 is disposed corresponding to the notch groove 4. The blade assembly 3 is exposed on the outside of the outer sheath assembly 1 through the notch groove 4.

[0025] The outer sheath assembly 1 consists of an outer sheath 101 and a sleeve 102. The outer sheath 101 is a hollow cylinder. The right end of the outer sheath 101 is connected to the sleeve 102, which is used to accommodate and limit the stop rod 202 and the return spring 203. A sliding cavity is provided inside the outer sheath 101. A cutting groove 103 is provided on the left side of the outer sheath 101. The cutting groove 103 communicates with the sliding cavity and is correspondingly provided with the blade assembly 3. Sliding grooves 104 are provided on the front and rear walls of the right end of the cutting groove 103. The sliding grooves 104 are used to limit the sliding of the shaft 303 on the first cutter shaft seat 301. Fixing holes 105 are provided on the front and rear walls of the left end of the cutting groove 103. The fixing holes 105 are used to limit the rotation of the shaft 303 on the second cutter shaft seat 302.

[0026] The drive assembly 2 consists of a push rod 201, a stop rod 202, a return spring 203, and a rotary handle 204. The push rod 201 is slidably disposed in the slide cavity, and the stop rod 202 is slidably disposed in the sleeve 102. The push rod 201 and the stop rod 202 are fixedly connected. The stop rod 202 is covered with a return spring 203. The return spring 203 fixes the rotary handle 204 to the bottom of the sleeve 102. The elastic deformation capability of the return spring 203 is used to limit the sliding stroke of the push rod 201. The rotary handle 204 is fixedly installed on the right end of the stop rod 202.

[0027] The blade assembly 3 includes a first blade shaft seat 301, a second blade shaft seat 302, a shaft 303, blades 304, and a movable shaft 305. Two centrally symmetrical blades 304 are rotatably mounted on the movable shaft 305. The opening direction of the blades 304 is consistent with the orientation of the notch groove 4. The first blade shaft seat 301 and the second blade shaft seat 302 are rotatably connected to the two blades 304 respectively. The first blade shaft seat 301 and the second blade shaft seat 302 are both fixed with shafts 303 at their front and rear ends. The shaft 303 on the first blade shaft seat 301 slides correspondingly with the slide groove 104. The first blade shaft seat 301 is fixedly connected to the push rod 201. The shaft 303 on the second blade shaft seat 302 is correspondingly set with the fixing hole 105. By pushing the first blade shaft seat 301 towards the second blade shaft seat 302 through the push rod 201, the two blades 304 will rotate around the movable shaft 305, so that the blades 304 can adjust the depth of the ureteral incision according to individual needs.

[0028] Working principle

[0029] In use, this invention involves inserting the outer sheath assembly 1 into the narrow part of the ureter using the F6 / 7.5 narrow ureteroscope operating channel. Rotating the handle 204 pushes the first blade shaft seat 301 on the push rod 201 to move towards the second blade shaft seat 302 within the blade groove 103. The shaft 303 on the first blade shaft seat 301 slides directionally within the slide groove 104, ensuring that the two blades 304 can rotate stably around the movable shaft 305. This allows the blades 304 to adjust the depth of the incision inside the ureter according to individual needs, achieving a more precise incision.
