A device which illuminates internal tissue and organs of a patient. The illumination member includes an array of light-emitting diodes (“LEDs”). The arrangement of the array depends on the configuration of the device and the procedure for which the device is being used. In all cases, the illumination member is used to illuminate relevant organs or structures in the body in order to increase visibility during surgical procedures. The LED array reduces the potential for inadvertent injury to internal structures for procedures located throughout the body. These procedures include those involving the reproductive organs of males and females, gastric and bariatrics, and other structures in the abdomen.

Example embodiments relate to surgical devices, systems, and methods. The system may include a port assembly and instrument arm assembly. The port assembly may have first and second end sections. The first end section may include a first end channel and first gate assembly. The second end section may include a second end channel, second gate assembly, and anchor port. The first and second gate assemblies may be configurable to transition between an open position to allow access through the first and second end channels, respectively, and a closed position to prevent access to same. The instrument arm assembly may include a shoulder section securable to the anchor port, first arm section secured to the shoulder section, elbow section secured to the first arm section, second arm section secured to the elbow section, wrist section secured to the second arm section, and end effector section secured to the wrist section.

Example embodiments relate to surgical systems having end-effector assembly, first and second arm assemblies, and elbow joint assembly. End-effector assembly includes instrument assembly and wrist assembly. Instrument assembly includes a first instrument. First arm assembly includes a body, first and second instrument drive assemblies, wrist drive assembly, and first arm drive assembly. First instrument drive assembly is configurable to move first instrument relative to first axis. Wrist drive assembly is configurable to move instrument assembly relative second axis. First arm drive assembly is configurable to rotate end-effector assembly relative to third axis. Elbow joint assembly includes elbow pitch joint portion configurable to be driven to move first arm assembly relative to fourth axis. Elbow joint assembly also includes elbow sway joint portion configurable to be driven to move first arm assembly relative to fifth axis.

Example embodiments relate to devices and systems for performing surgical actions. The system includes an instrument arm assembly configured in a reverse configuration. The instrument arm assembly includes a securing portion, shoulder section, first arm section, second arm section, elbow joint, end effector section, and wrist joint. The shoulder section includes a first end secured to a second end of the securing portion and a second end secured to a first end of the first arm section. The elbow joint secures a second end of the first arm section to a first end of the second arm section. The reverse configuration is a configuration in which a first line drawn from the second end of the shoulder section to the first end of the first arm section is a line that points towards a first end of the securing portion.

Described here are devices, systems, and methods for providing remote traction to tissue. Generally, the systems may include a grasper and a delivery device configured to releasably couple to the grasper. The grasper may have a first jaw and a second jaw and a main body having a barrel portion. The barrel portion may have a lumen extending therethrough, and a portion of the delivery device may be advanced through the lumen to rotate one or both of the jaws. The delivery devices may include a handle, a shaft, and a distal engagement portion. The delivery devices may further include an actuation rod which may be advanced through a barrel portion of a grasper to actuate the grasper. In some instances, the delivery device may further include a locking sheath, wherein the locking sheath is configured to temporarily couple to a grasper.

A SURGICAL ACCESSORY TO BE USED WITHIN THE BODY WHICH IS ATTACHED TO THE ABDOMINAL WALL, FOR HOLDING AND POSITIONING TISSUE AND SURGICAL IMPLEMENTS DURING LAPEROSCOPIC OR ROBOTIC SURGERY. THIS CONSIST OF A COLLAPSABLE TABLE WITH ATTACHED FLEXABLE OR FIXED ARMS WITH ACCESSORIES FOR HOLDING SURGICAL TOOLS OR MANIPULATING TISSUES OR ORGANS. A SURGICAL CLIP THAT ATTACHES TO OTHER INSTRUMENTS OFFERING MULTIPLE APPLICATIONS FOR CAPTURING AND SECURING OTHER ACCESSORIES SUCH AS CAMERAS OR INTRA OPERATIVE ULTRASOUND PROBES.

Devices used during minimally invasive surgery (sometimes called minimal access surgery or laparoscopic surgery) for implantation and fixation of various cameras, for example, to the human body. An insertable device including a housing divided into two sections, a camera, a sensor, at least two LED lights, a lens flush located above the camera lens to clean a lens of the camera, and a motor for moving the camera in relation to the housing with pan and tilt capabilities. An insertion tool for inserting devices including a cannula, a top housing, and a bottom, wherein the bottom couples with the insertable device. A capture and fixation device for capturing and fixing an insertable device to an internal body cavity wall, the device includes a cannula, at least one slideable clamp device, and a retractable loop. Once the insertable device is positioned, the retractable loop fixes the insertable device to the body cavity wall.

A system for use in surgery includes a central body, a visualization system operably connected to the central body, a video rendering system, a head-mounted display for displaying images from the video rendering system, a sensor system, and a robotic device operably connected to the central body. The visualization system includes at least one camera and a pan system and/or a tilt system. The sensor system tracks the position and/or orientation in space of the head-mounted display relative to a reference point. The pan system and/or the tilt system are configured to adjust the field of view of the camera in response to information from the sensor system about changes in at least one of position and orientation in space of the head-mounted display relative to the reference point.

An access port is disclosed for use in minimally invasive surgical procedures performed within a patient's abdominal cavity, which includes a body defining a bore configured to guide at least one surgical instrument into the abdominal cavity, and concave and convex anchoring regions for securing the access port relative to the abdominal cavity.

Example embodiments relate to surgical systems. The system includes an end-effector assembly having an instrument. The system includes a first arm assembly. A distal end of first arm assembly is securable to the end-effector assembly. The system includes an elbow joint assembly. A distal end of elbow joint assembly is secured to a proximal end of first arm assembly. A proximal end of elbow joint assembly is secured to a distal end of second arm assembly. The second arm assembly includes a first elbow drive assembly. The first elbow drive assembly includes an integrated motor for driving the elbow joint assembly to pivotally move the first arm assembly relative to an axis. The second arm assembly also includes a second elbow drive assembly. The second elbow drive assembly includes an integrated motor for driving the elbow joint assembly to pivotally move the first arm assembly relative to another axis.
