Introducer System And Assembly For Surgical Staplers

US Patent:
2011024, Oct 13, 2011
Filed:
Apr 8, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/756713
Inventors:
Hidehisa Thomas Takei - Riverside CA, US
International Classification:
A61B 17/068
US Classification:
2271751
Abstract:
An introducer assembly for use with a surgical stapler is provided. The introducer assembly includes an elongated main body portion, one or more mounting mechanisms associated with the main body portion, and a plurality of petals or fingers positioned at a distal end of the elongated main body portion. The one or more mounting mechanisms are adapted to detachably mount with respect to the surgical stapler. The plurality of petals or fingers define a distal junction and a proximally-directed mounting member that is adapted to detachably engage a distal portion of the surgical stapler. The plurality of petals or fingers define an inner region that accommodates a distal end of the surgical stapler. The distal junction and the proximally-directed mounting member associated with the plurality of petals or fingers are adapted to disengage upon application of a requisite proximally-directed force to the elongated body portion. Methods and combinations that utilize the introducer are also disclosed.

Introducer System And Assembly For Surgical Staplers

US Patent:
2013021, Aug 22, 2013
Filed:
Jan 11, 2013
Appl. No.:
13/739057
Inventors:
Hidehisa Thomas Takei - Riverside CA, US
International Classification:
A61B 17/068
US Classification:
2271751
Abstract:
An introducer assembly for use with a surgical stapler is provided. The introducer assembly includes an elongated main body portion, one or more mounting mechanisms associated with the main body portion, and a plurality of petals or fingers positioned at a distal end of the elongated main body portion. The one or more mounting mechanisms are adapted to detachably mount with respect to the surgical stapler. The plurality of petals or fingers define a distal junction and a proximally-directed mounting member that is adapted to detachably engage a distal portion of the surgical stapler. Exemplary introducer assemblies may include an adjustable length of the plurality of petals or fingers to conform to a distal end of the surgical stapler, an adjustable height of the proximally-directed mounting member to adjust an entry angle, means for detachably engaging a trocar, and/or means for insufflating air into a passage.
