Apparatus For Treating Varicose Veins

US Patent:

5792168, Aug 11, 1998

Filed:

Nov 14, 1996

Appl. No.:

8/747805

Inventors:

William D. Suval - Apple Valley CA

International Classification:

A61B 1732

US Classification:

606185

Abstract:

The surgical apparatus comprises a needle extending from an end of an elongated shaft and having a sharpened tip. A cylindrical sleeve is concentrically disposed around the shaft and is adapted to move in sliding engagement with the shaft along an axial extent thereof. The needle and the cylindrical sleeve further have respective facing surfaces that are adapted to come into direct contact by movement of the cylindrical sleeve into close proximity with the needle. The facing surfaces define a gripping region therebetween, and by moving the cylindrical sleeve relative to the shaft, the length of gripping region can be varied. The needle permits the formation of an incision through a skin layer adjacent to a varicose vein, and the gripping region can selectively engage the varicose vein to permit removal of a selected portion thereof through the incision.

Surgical Tool For Treating Varicose Veins

US Patent:

2005021, Sep 29, 2005

Filed:

Mar 23, 2004

Appl. No.:

10/806641

Inventors:

William Suval - Apple Valley CA, US
Lev Melinyshyn - Buffalo Grove IL, US

International Classification:

A61B018/18, A61M029/00

US Classification:

606194000

Abstract:

A surgical tool for extracting varicose veins includes an elongate handle with a hook at one end and a piercing/dilating head at the other end. The piercing/dilating head is bulbous in shape and has both a sharp tip and a dilating surface that can be used to dilate an opening without making a longitudinal incision. The hook can be used to extract the vein through the dilated opening. Sculpted sections on the piercing/dilating head help to prevent the tool from rolling on flat surfaces, and alternating sections of relieved surfaces and surfaces with polygonal cross-sections make it easier to grip.
