The protective trocar is disposed inside the trocar cutting knife, the trocar cutting knife is rotationally connected to the protective trocar; the protective trocar passes through the grip; the grip is provided with a drive mechanism for driving the trocar cutting knife to move relative to the grip; a bacteriostatic cylinder is fixedly mounted at one end of the grip, and the trocar cutting knife passes through the bacteriostatic cylinder; an ultraviolet lamp is fixedly mounted inside the bacteriostatic cylinder, and an end of the bacteriostatic cylinder is provided with a cleaning mechanism for cleaning the trocar cutting knife.

A medical device is provided comprising a first port; a second port in fluid communication with the first port; and a third port in selective fluid communication with both the first port and the second port; a sealing membrane disposed between the third port and both the first port and the second port, the sealing membrane is configured to move between a first position preventing fluid communication between the third port and both the first port and the second port and a second position allowing fluid communication between the third port and the first port, wherein movement of a fluid supplied to the medical device at the third port moves the sealing membrane from the first position to the second position.

Devices and methods of modifying tissue for low profile and ultra profile rongeur devices to treat spinal tissue. These devices may include a curved or curveable distal region; the cutting member may be configured to operate in the curved region. Also described herein are tissue modification devices that may be flexible or bendable for positioning in the tissue (including the spinal region) but can be made rigid once in position, or otherwise fixed in place to allow leverage when modifying the tissue.

A cutting tool and an attachment mechanism configured to removably securely couple the cutting tool and a cutting instrument together. The cutting tool comprises a tang end portion, a tip end portion, and a cutting edge on the tip end portion. The attachment mechanism comprises a first and second clamping members with first and second engagement surfaces, respectively. The second clamping member further comprises a pair of axially-spaced projections extending and a pair of laterally-spaced projections extending past the second engagement surface. The attachment mechanism further comprises an adjustment mechanism configured to selectively adjust the distance between the first and second engagement surfaces. The tang end portion comprises an axially extending coupling slot and a pair of elastically-deformable securement members at lateral sides that extend laterally outward as they extend axially from the tang end portion toward the tip end portion.

An apparatus for use in connection with an endoscopic surgery includes an elongated body adapted to be placed at least partially in the vagina of a female patient partially passing through the wall of the vagina such that an end portion of said elongated element is introduced into rectouterine pouch. The elongated body includes at least an attachment means for accommodating at least a part of at least a surgical instrument comprising an end portion adapted to be received inside the vagina, the surgical instrument and the apparatus are movable to each other. An endobag having an elongated port is provided through the vagina into the pelvis.

The present disclosure relates to a damper for a surgical imaging device and a surgical imaging device. The damper is comprising a stack of layers comprising: a first outer layer, a central layer, and a second outer layer. The layers are linked to form a base piece of the damper. The first outer layer further forms a first end of the damper configured to be connected to a stand of the surgical imaging device and the second outer layer further forms a second end of the damper configured to be connected to a base of the surgical imaging device. The damper is configured to undergo elastic deformation in response to a pushing or pulling force exhibited on one of the ends such that the central layer, but not the outer layers, undergo elastic deformation. Application of the force to the first end causes a deferral of the first outer layer relative to the second outer layer, thereby inducing shearing deformation of the central layer.

An apparatus for use in connection with an endoscopic surgery comprises an elongated body adapted to be placed at least partially in the vagina of a female patient partially passing through the wall of the vagina such that an end portion of said elongated element is introduced into rectouterine pouch; the elongated body comprises at least an attachment means for accommodating at least a part of at least a surgical instrument comprising an end portion adapted to be received inside the vagina, the surgical instrument and the apparatus are movable to each other. An endobag having an elongated port is provided through the vagina into the pelvis. A method for use in a pelvic or peritoneal surgery is provided wherein at least an elongated end portion of a surgical instrument is provided in the cavity of the uterus through the vagina of a female patient such that the uterus can be repositioned by manipulating the surgical instrument and an incision is performed on the vaginal wall for accessing to the rectouterine pouch, a flexible element is provided in pelvis wherein the flexible element is looped around the uterus such that the flexible element encircles the uterus.

The cutting tool comprises a tang end portion, a tip end portion, and a cutting edge on the tip end portion. The attachment mechanism comprises a first and second clamping members with first and second engagement surfaces, respectively. The second clamping member further comprises at least one alignment projections extending and a pair of laterally-spaced projections extending past the second engagement surface. The attachment mechanism further comprises an adjustment mechanism configured to selectively adjust the distance between the first and second engagement surfaces. The tang end portion comprises an axially extending coupling slot and a pair of elastically-deformable securement members at lateral sides that extend laterally outward as they extend axially from the tang end portion toward the tip end portion.

A robotic surgical tool includes a handle and an elongate shaft extendable through the handle and including an outer proximal tube and an inner spline rotatably received within the outer proximal tube. A first actuation system is housed within the handle and operable to rotate the inner spline relative to the outer proximal tube and thereby transfer torque to a proximal or distal end of the shaft. A second actuation system is housed within the handle and operable to drive the outer proximal tube and thereby advance or retract the elongate shaft in z-axis translation through the handle.
