AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Laparoscopic sutures are particularly challenging due to limited space and degrees of freedom, making it difficult for surgeons, especially beginners, to perform complex suture operations efficiently.
Method used
A tissue suture system utilizing two rollers to hold and rotate a curved suture needle, allowing for synchronized movement and adjustment of the needle, thereby simplifying the suture process by reducing manual dexterity requirements.
Benefits of technology
The system significantly reduces the difficulty of tissue sutures, enhances operational efficiency, and makes the suture process more accessible to surgeons by automating key aspects of needle handling and positioning.

Abstract
The present invention relates to the technical field of tissue suturing, and in particular to a tissue suturing system, which includes a first roller, a second roller, a first power unit, a second power unit, and a suture needle. The suture needle is inserted between the first roller and the second roller whose axes are parallel, and is clamped by the two rollers, and at least one of the two rollers is driven to rotate, and the two rollers urge the suture needle through a clamping position on the suture needle. The first power unit provides the first roller and the second roller to approach each other so that the axes are parallel and reach a position where the suture needle is clamped. The second power unit provides rotational power for the driven rotation. The suture needle has a curved structure, is rotated by the driven rotation to insert and remove tissue along a curved direction, and always has an external exposed position because it is clamped by the two rollers. In the present invention, the current form of holding, adjusting, inserting, and removing the suture needle can be changed, and the efficiency of the suturing process can be effectively improved, and the entire operation process is accepted by many operators due to its reduced difficulty.
