Abstract

The present invention provides a rotary cutting biopsy needle, comprising a distal tube portion, wherein the distal tube portion sequentially comprises, from outside to inside, an outer sheath tube, a puncture needle tube, and a rotary cutter tube. Before puncture, the distal end of the puncture needle tube is located in the outer sheath tube, and the distal end of the rotary cutter tube is located in the puncture needle tube. During puncture, the puncture needle tube and the rotary cutter tube emerge from the distal end of the outer sheath tube together to puncture the tissue, and in the puncture process, the distal end of the rotary cutter tube remains located in the puncture needle tube. After the puncture is completed, the rotary cutter tube extends out of the distal end of the puncture needle tube, and the tissue is sampled by means of rotary cutting. Since the distal end of the rotary cutter tube is located within the puncture needle tube during puncture, the rotary cutter tube may pierce human tissues together with the puncture needle tube, thereby ensuring the smoothness of the outer surface of the puncture needle tube and making puncture breakthrough easier.

Description

A rotational biopsy needle TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of medical devices, and in particular to a rotational biopsy needle. BACKGROUND

[0002] Biopsy is short for "biological tissue examination", also known as surgical pathology examination, a group of medical diagnostic test methods for determining the structure and composition of tissues or cells. In biopsy, a sample of cells or tissues is taken from an organ or other body part, and after being sent to the pathology department, standard pathological sections are made, and the morphological structure is observed under a microscope, and finally a clear pathological diagnosis can be given to guide targeted treatment. Generally, if an abnormality is found through superficial examination, such as palpation or radiographic imaging, a biopsy can be performed to determine the nature of the suspected abnormality.

[0003] Endoscopic ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration biopsy is a minimally invasive examination technique for puncture biopsy of lung, peripulmonary tissue and lymph nodes under real-time ultrasound guidance. Its advantages are that it can avoid important parts such as large blood vessels and nerves as much as possible under real-time ultrasound monitoring, reduce the risk of massive bleeding, improve the accuracy of sampling, and is minimally invasive, simple to operate, and relatively safe.

[0004] Traditional endoscopic ultrasound biopsy needles need to be repeatedly punctured for sampling, and the integrity of the sampled tissue is poor, thus causing low sampling efficiency and poor sample quality. The rotational biopsy needle is different from the traditional biopsy needle, which has a rotary cutter head driven by a motor to rotate, replacing the traditional reciprocating puncture sampling with rotary cutting to improve sampling efficiency and sample quality.

[0005] Taking lung nodule sampling as an example, the rotational biopsy needle reaches the bronchus near the nodule through the endoscope, and then needs to puncture and break through the bronchial wall to reach the sampling position. The bronchial wall is relatively hard, and it is difficult to break through. Since the rotary cutter itself cannot break through the bronchial wall, a puncture needle is needed to guide the rotary cutter to achieve puncture breakthrough.

[0006] However, the puncture needle of the current rotational biopsy needle is a nickel-titanium wire (also known as a guide wire, which achieves the function of the puncture needle) located inside the rotary cutter. When puncturing and breaking through, the nickel-titanium wire can puncture the tissue wall, but the rotary cutter cannot puncture and is blocked outside the tissue wall, and cannot reach the sampling position, thus causing puncture failure.

[0028] Compared with the prior art, the technical scheme of the embodiment of the application has the following beneficial effects:

[0029] 1. The rotary biopsy needle provided by the application comprises a distal end tube part, which comprises, from the outside to the inside, an outer sheath tube, a puncture needle tube and a rotary cutting knife tube; before puncture, the distal end of the puncture needle tube is located in the outer sheath tube, and the distal end of the rotary cutting knife tube is located in the puncture needle tube; during puncture, the puncture needle tube and the rotary cutting knife tube are punctured together from the distal end of the outer sheath tube to the tissue, and during the puncture process, the distal end of the rotary cutting knife tube is always located in the puncture needle tube; after puncture, the rotary cutting knife tube is extended from the distal end of the puncture needle tube to sample the tissue by rotary cutting. Since the distal end of the rotary cutting knife tube is located in the puncture needle tube during puncture, the rotary cutting knife tube can be punctured into the human tissue together with the puncture needle tube, thereby ensuring the smoothness of the outer surface of the puncture needle tube and facilitating puncture.

[0030] 2. In the application, the outer sheath tube is the outermost layer of the distal end tube part of the biopsy needle, and the inner cavity of the outer sheath tube can completely accommodate the puncture needle tube and the rotary cutting knife tube; therefore, before puncture, the distal end of the puncture needle tube is placed in the outer sheath tube, and the distal end of the rotary cutting knife tube is placed in the puncture needle tube; during the conveying of the outer sheath tube into the working channel of the endoscope, the puncture needle or the rotary cutting knife is prevented from damaging the endoscope.

[0031] 3. In order to realize the flexible rotation of the rotary cutting knife tube, the rotary cutting knife tube is connected with the rotary cutting soft shaft of the metal wire spring tube to realize the flexible transmission of torque and rotation speed; however, in the state without rigid support, the metal wire spring tube is prone to shaking, which affects the sampling effect. In the application, the puncture needle tube is sleeved outside the rotary cutting knife tube, and the inner diameter of the puncture needle tube is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the rotary cutting knife tube; therefore, the puncture needle tube can play a role similar to a sliding bearing, and when the rotary cutting knife tube rotates, the rotary cutting knife tube rotates in the inner cavity of the puncture needle tube, thereby preventing the rotary cutting knife tube from shaking and providing rigid support for the rotary cutting knife tube, and improving the stability of the rotary cutting knife tube during rotation.

[0032] 4. Traditional biopsy needles are typically fixed to the endoscope via a proximal sheath, and operated by a single endoscopist. However, because the rotary biopsy needle contains a motor, the combined weight of the motor handle and proximal sheath significantly increases the difficulty of maneuvering and operating the endoscope if the traditional fixing method is used. This invention directly fixes the outer sheath to the endoscope using an endoscope fixing component on the outer sheath. The proximal sheath and motor handle are then held and operated by a separate operator, allowing the physician to maneuver the endoscope and assist with sampling. This avoids the excessive weight of the motor handle and consumable handle, which would otherwise hinder operation. Therefore, the handling and operation of the endoscope are completely separated from those of the proximal sheath, reducing operational difficulty and increasing the adjustment range of the outer sheath's insertion depth.

[0033] Of course, any product implementing this invention does not necessarily need to achieve all of the advantages described above at the same time. Attached Figure Description

[0050] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described in connection with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0051] The terms "first", "second", "third", "fourth" and the like (if any) in the description, claims, and drawings of the present application are used to distinguish similar objects, and do not necessarily indicate a particular order or a sequence. It should be understood that the data thus used can be interchanged under appropriate circumstances, so that the embodiments of the present application described herein can be implemented in other than the order illustrated or described herein. In addition, the terms "include" and "have" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, for example, a process, method, system, product or device that includes a list of steps or units does not necessarily limit to those steps or units clearly listed, but can include other steps or units not clearly listed or inherent to such processes, methods, products or devices. The terms "on" and "above" and any variations thereof are intended to describe the positional relationship, and do not represent a direct contact relationship between the described objects.

[0052] As described in the background, the puncture needle of the current rotary cutting biopsy needle is a nickel-titanium wire (also known as a guide wire, which realizes the function of the puncture needle) located inside the rotary cutting knife. When the puncture breaks through, the nickel-titanium wire can puncture the tissue wall, but the rotary cutting knife cannot puncture and is blocked outside the tissue wall, and cannot reach the sampling position, thereby causing puncture failure.

[0053] In order to solve the above technical problems, referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the present application provides a rotary biopsy needle, comprising a distal pipeline part 1, which comprises, from outside to inside, an outer sheath tube 101, a puncture needle tube 102 and a rotary cutter tube 103, before puncture, the distal end of the puncture needle tube 102 is located in the outer sheath tube 101, and the distal end of the rotary cutter tube 103 is located in the puncture needle tube 102; during puncture, the puncture needle tube 102 and the rotary cutter tube 103 are punctured together from the distal end of the outer sheath tube 101 to the tissue, and during the puncture process, the distal end of the rotary cutter tube 103 is always located in the puncture needle tube 102; after puncture, the rotary cutter tube 103 is stretched out from the distal end of the puncture needle tube 102 to sample the tissue by rotary cutting.

[0054] Since the distal end of the rotary cutter tube 103 is located in the puncture needle tube 102 during puncture, the rotary cutter tube 103 can follow the puncture needle tube 103 to penetrate into the human tissue, ensuring the smoothness of the outer surface of the puncture needle tube, and making it easier to puncture and break through.

[0055] In the present application, the outer sheath tube 101 is the outermost layer of the distal pipeline part of the biopsy needle, and its inner cavity can completely accommodate the puncture needle tube 102 and the rotary cutter tube 103, so that before puncture, the distal end of the puncture needle tube 102 is placed in the outer sheath tube 101, and the distal end of the rotary cutter tube 103 is placed in the puncture needle tube 102, and during the transportation of the outer sheath tube 101 into the working channel of the endoscope, the puncture needle or the rotary cutter is prevented from damaging the endoscope.

[0056] As an embodiment, the rotary biopsy needle further comprises a proximal hand-held part, which comprises a proximal shell 4 and a puncture depth adjusting mechanism 3, referring to FIG. 3, the puncture depth adjusting mechanism 3 comprises a sheath seat 301 and a sheath seat locking member 302, the sheath seat 301 is fixed with the proximal end of the outer sheath tube 101, the proximal shell 4 can move axially relative to the sheath seat 301, and the sheath seat 301 can be locked with the proximal shell 4 through the sheath seat locking member 302.

[0057] The puncture needle tube 102 and the rotary cutter tube 103 are connected in the proximal end shell 4 respectively. Before puncture, the distal end of the puncture needle tube 102 is located in the outer sheath tube 101, and the distal end of the rotary cutter tube 103 is located in the puncture needle tube 102; when puncturing, the sheath seat locking member 302 does not lock the sheath seat 301 and the proximal end shell 4, and by pushing the proximal end shell 4 to the distal end, the puncture needle tube 102 and the rotary cutter tube 103 are taken out from the distal end of the outer sheath tube 101 and puncture the tissue, please refer to Fig. 4; during the puncture process, the distal end of the rotary cutter tube 103 is always located in the puncture needle tube 102, so that the rotary cutter tube 103 can follow the puncture needle tube 102 to penetrate into the human tissue, and the smoothness of the outer surface of the puncture needle tube 102 is ensured, and the puncture is easier to break through.

[0058] The material of the outer sheath tube 101 is not limited in the application, and preferably smooth high molecular materials such as PTFE and PEEK are used to prevent damage to the endoscope during the process of passing through the working channel of the endoscope and to ensure the delivery performance.

[0059] The conventional biopsy needle is usually fixed by the proximal end shell and the endoscope and is uniformly operated by the endoscope operator. However, the rotary biopsy needle has a motor, and the weight of the motor handle and the proximal end shell is large after assembly, so that if the conventional fixing method is used, the fixing of the proximal end shell and the endoscope will greatly increase the difficulty of the endoscope operation and the operation difficulty of the endoscope operator.

[0060] In order to solve the above technical problems, the endoscope is fixed with the outer sheath tube 101 through the endoscope fixing member 2 on the outer sheath tube 101, and the proximal end shell and the motor handle are held and operated by another special operator, so that the doctor operates the endoscope and cooperates with sampling, the weight of the motor handle and the consumable handle is avoided to affect the operation. Therefore, the holding and operation of the endoscope and the holding and operation of the proximal end shell are separated, the operation difficulty is reduced, and the adjustment range of the intervention depth of the outer sheath tube 101 is increased.

[0061] As an embodiment, please refer to Fig. 5, the endoscope fixing member 2 includes a locking member 202 and a lock sleeve 201, the lock sleeve 201 is provided with a connecting part 2011 fixedly connected with the endoscope and a locking part 2013 movably sleeved on the outer sheath tube 101, the locking part 2013 can move axially relative to the outer sheath tube 101, and the locking part 2013 can be locked at any position of the outer sheath tube 101 by the locking member 202.

[0062] The embodiment does not make specific limitation on the fixed connection mode of the connecting part 2011 and the endoscope, such as threaded connection, clamping or other detachable fixed connection mode. Meanwhile, the embodiment does not make specific limitation on the mode of the locking part 2013 locked by the locking member 202 on the outer sheath 101, such as nut locking, locking screw locking and the like.

[0063] As an embodiment, the connecting part 2011 is a first luer joint, the proximal end of the working channel of the endoscope is provided with a second luer joint matched with the first luer joint, and the first luer joint is connected with the second luer joint.

[0064] In a specific embodiment, the connecting part 2011 and the locking part 2013 are coaxially fixedly connected through the intermediate connecting sleeve 2012, the connecting part 2011 and the intermediate connecting sleeve 2012 are movably sleeved on the outer sheath 101, the connecting part 2011 is located at the distal end of the intermediate connecting sleeve 2012, the connecting part 2011 is provided with an internal thread joint, the proximal end of the working channel of the endoscope is provided with an external thread joint matched with the internal thread joint, and the internal thread joint is fastened with the external thread joint through threads; the locking part 2013 is located at the proximal end of the intermediate connecting sleeve 2012, the locking part 2013 is provided with an external thread, the locking member 202 is a first lock cap, the first lock cap is internally provided with a threaded hole matched with the external thread of the locking part 2013, and the first lock cap is tightened on the locking part 2013, so that the locking part 2013 clamps the outer sheath 101.

[0065] The locking part 2013 can be an elastic member such as a silica gel structure, and the first lock cap can enhance the fixing effect by extruding the elastic member. The proximal end of the locking part 2013 can also be spaced apart from a plurality of pressing strips movably sleeved on the outer sheath 101, the first lock cap is designed into a tapered structure gradually tapering from the distal end to the proximal end, the first lock cap is tightened with the locking part 2013, so that the plurality of pressing strips are folded and clamp the outer sheath 101, and the fixed connection between the outer sheath 101 and the endoscope is achieved.

[0066] During delivery, the endoscope is fixedly connected with the connecting part 2011, the first lock cap is in a loosened state, and the endoscope can be moved arbitrarily to adjust the relative position between the outer sheath 101 and the endoscope. When the endoscope reaches the specified position, the adjustment is completed, the first lock cap is locked, and at this time, the locking part 2013 is locked and shrunk with the first lock cap to clamp the outer sheath 101, and the fixed connection between the outer sheath 101 and the endoscope is achieved.

[0067] Since the locking portion 2013 can move axially relative to the outer sheath 101, the endoscope fixing member 2 can be locked at any position of the outer sheath 101, thereby expanding the intervention length adjustment range of the outer sheath 101.

[0068] Since the technical scheme of adjusting and locking two components by the locking member 202 and the locking sleeve 201 belongs to a relatively mature technology in the mechanical field, any technical scheme of adjusting and locking the outer sheath 101 and the endoscope by the locking member 202 and the locking sleeve 201 is within the protection scope of the present application.

[0069] Similarly, since the sheath seat 301 and the sheath seat locking member 302 of the puncture depth adjustment mechanism 3 are also technical schemes of adjusting and locking two components by cooperation, the technical scheme belongs to a relatively mature technology in the mechanical field, and therefore, the present application does not limit the specific structure of the sheath seat 301 and the sheath seat locking member 302. Any technical scheme of adjusting and locking the outer sheath 101 and the proximal shell 4 by the cooperation of the sheath seat 301 and the sheath seat locking member 302 is within the protection scope of the present application.

[0070] As an embodiment, the sheath seat 301 is a sleeve structure, the distal end of the sheath seat 301 is fixedly connected coaxially with the proximal end of the outer sheath 101, and the proximal end of the sheath seat 301 movably sheaths the proximal shell 4; an outer thread is arranged on the proximal end outer wall of the sheath seat 301, the sheath seat locking member 302 is a second locking cap, a threaded hole adapted to the outer thread of the sheath seat 301 is arranged in the second locking cap, and the sheath seat 301 clamps the proximal shell 4 by screwing the second locking cap on the sheath seat 301.

[0071] The proximal end of the sheath seat 301 can be an elastic member such as a silica gel structure, and the second locking cap can enhance the fixing effect by extruding the elastic member. The proximal end of the sheath seat 301 is not limited to an elastic member, and a plurality of pressing strips can be arranged at intervals, the second locking cap is designed into a tapered structure gradually tapering from the distal end to the proximal end, and the second locking cap clamps the proximal shell 4 by screwing with the sheath seat 301, thereby achieving the locking connection between the sheath seat 301 and the proximal shell 4.

[0072] In the initial state before puncture, the distal end of the puncture needle tube 102 is located in the outer sheath tube 101, and the distal end of the rotary cutter tube 103 is located in the puncture needle tube 102. The outer sheath tube 101 is delivered into the working channel of the endoscope. When the outer sheath tube 101 reaches the designated position and is fixed, puncture breakthrough can be performed. At this time, the puncture depth adjusting mechanism 3 is adjusted according to the requirement of puncture depth. Specifically, the second lock cap is loosened, the sheath seat 301 is held by hand, and the proximal end shell 4 is quickly pushed to the distal end. The proximal end shell 4 will drive the distal end of the puncture needle tube 102 and the rotary cutter tube 103 to penetrate out of the outer sheath tube 101 and puncture the barrier tissue such as the bronchial wall. After the puncture is completed, the second lock cap is locked.

[0086] The tube 103 is a tubular structure, which is the innermost layer of the distal tube part of the biopsy needle. The distal end of the tube 103 is provided with a ring-shaped cutting edge, which ensures that the tube 103 can smoothly cut the tissue. The ring-shaped cutting edge is preferably provided with a flat mouth structure, which is used to ensure the integrity of the tissue after the cutting, so that the tissue is not disintegrated and the pathological analysis is not affected.

[0087] As an embodiment, referring to FIG. 9, the ring-shaped cutting edge at the distal end of the tube 103 is an outer blade cutting edge 1031 formed by removing the inner corner of the distal end face of the tube 103. The outer blade cutting edge 1031 is used for cutting low-density tissue.

[0088] As another embodiment, referring to FIG. 10, the ring-shaped cutting edge at the distal end of the tube 103 is an inner blade cutting edge 1031' formed by removing the outer corner of the distal end face of the tube 103. The inner blade cutting edge 1031' is used for cutting high-density tissue.

[0089] In a specific embodiment, referring to FIG. 11, the tube 103 includes a distal metal tube 1032, a metal wire spring tube 1033, a proximal metal tube 1035, and a high-molecular sealing tube 1034. The distal metal tube 1032 and the proximal metal tube 1035 are both metal tubes, such as stainless steel tubes. The distal end of the distal metal tube 1032 is a ring-shaped cutting edge. The distal metal tube 1032 is made of metal, which can ensure that the tube 103 can smoothly cut the tissue. The proximal metal tube 1035 is also made of metal, which is used to facilitate its assembly and fixation. The metal wire spring tube 1033 is a hollow tube woven by metal wires. The metal wires are made of stainless steel or nickel-titanium structure. In the bent state, the metal wire spring tube 1033 can flexibly transmit the rotation speed and torque, and effectively reduce the vibration. The proximal end of the distal metal tube 1032 and the distal end of the metal wire spring tube 1033 are connected by end face welding process, which ensures that the outer diameter and the inner diameter of the distal metal tube 1032 and the metal wire spring tube 1033 are basically consistent.

[0090] On the outside of the tube 103, a thin-walled high-molecular sealing tube 1034 is provided, which can be a thin-walled heat shrink tube. The thin-walled heat shrink tube is fixed on the outside of the tube 103 by heat shrink process, which realizes the sealing of the tube 103, so that the internal cavity can transmit negative pressure or positive pressure, and avoid leakage at the welding position, the gap between the woven tubes, etc. At the same time, the thin-walled heat shrink tube can reduce the friction between the tube 103 and the puncture needle tube during rotation, and avoid the abrasion of the woven metal wires of the tube 103.

[0091] The proximal metal tube 1035 is wrapped on the proximal outside of the high-molecular sealing tube 1034, and the fixation of the proximal metal tube 1035 and the high-molecular sealing tube 1034 can be completed by bonding or other methods.

[0093] In the art, in order to realize the flexible rotation of the rotary cutter tube 103, the rotary cutter tube 103 realizes the flexible transmission of torque and rotation speed through the rotary cutter soft shaft of the metal wire spring tube 103, but in the state without rigid support, the metal wire spring tube 103 is very easy to vibrate, which affects the sampling effect. In the present application, the puncture needle tube 102 is sleeved outside the rotary cutter tube 103, and the inner diameter of the puncture needle tube 102 is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the rotary cutter tube 103, so that the puncture needle tube 102 can play a role similar to a sliding bearing. When the rotary cutter tube 103 rotates, the rotary cutter tube 103 rotates in the inner cavity of the puncture needle tube 102, avoiding the vibration of the rotary cutter tube 103, thereby providing rigid support for the rotary cutter tube 103 and improving the stability of the rotary cutter tube 103 when rotating.

[0094] The outer surface of the rotary cutter tube 103 is covered with a polymer sealing tube 1034, and the polymer sealing tube 1034 is at least sealingly sleeved on the metal wire spring tube 1033 and the connection between the metal wire spring tube 1033 and the distal end metal tube 1032.

[0095] In order to reduce the friction between the rotary cutter tube 103 and the puncture needle tube 102 when rotating, and avoid the wear of the woven metal wire of the rotary cutter tube 103, the polymer sealing tube 1034 is a heat shrink tube formed by fixing a polymer tube material on the outer surface of the rotary cutter tube 103 through a heat shrink process. The heat shrink tube can also improve the torsional performance and sealing performance of the metal wire spring tube 1033 without losing the bending performance.

[0096] In order to increase the adhesion of the cut tissue and avoid the shedding of the cut and sampled tissue, the inner wall surface of the rotary cutter tube 103 is provided with a rough surface that increases the friction coefficient, such as a threaded surface.

[0097] In order to improve the effect of ultrasonic imaging, the outer surface of the distal end metal tube 1032 is provided with a second ultrasonic reflection area, which requires an uneven pattern. As for the pattern shape of the second ultrasonic reflection area, the present application does not make specific limitation, such as increasing the roughness of the outer surface of the distal end metal tube 1032 through thread, dotting and other processes to improve the imaging effect of the rotary cutter tube 103 under ultrasonic.
