A device for positioning the incision margin in rectal tumor surgery

This invention relates to the field of medical device technology. This application discloses a surgical margin positioning device for rectal tumor surgery, including a travel hole and a travel groove. The travel hole and travel groove are distributed in a ring array. A travel rod is movably installed inside the travel hole. A mating hole is opened at the top of the travel rod. Sliding grooves are opened on both sides of the outer surface of the mating hole. A push rod is movably installed inside the sliding groove. A spring is provided at the top of the outer surface of the push rod, and the top of the spring is connected to the top of the inner wall of the travel rod. During the upward movement of the travel rod, it drives the travel rod, the ratchet rack, and the first side plate to move upward simultaneously, thereby driving the outer ring frame to move away from the main body, thus realizing the distance between the first positioner and the second positioner. This allows the operator to adjust the distance between the first positioner and the second positioner according to the size of the tumor inside the rectum. The tumor can be located with a single marking, improving the ease of operation of the device.
