The present invention relates to a surgical instrument for an iliac vein surgery, which is used in an iliac vein clamp for venous anastomosis in kidney and pancreas transplantations.
The surgery on the iliac vein is one of the common vascular procedures, such as kidney transplantation, pancreas transplantation, veno-venous bypass for unilateral iliac vein thrombosis (Palma-Dale Operation), hemostasis for traumatic internal organ damage in the pelvis, iatrogenic iliac vein injury in rectal cancer or gynecological cancer surgery, etc.
The surgical instrument of the present invention is used for this kind of operations and is mainly used in the high degree of difficulty and emergency surgery.
A bulldog clamp is used in a conventional vein surgery. However, two bulldog clamps are necessary for a complete hemostasis and the iliac vein is required to be exposed after complete dissection. In addition, the bulldog clamp does not sufficiently support and hold the iliac vein and suture materials are easily stuck to the bulldog clamp during the operation.
In addition, a conventional Satinsky clamp is used even though the iliac vein is not completely dissected, but a grip portion of the Satinsky clamp is placed at a high position during the operation since the Satinsky clamp is manufactured in the way that is suitable for a westerner's body rather than an easterner's body. As a result, the grip portion of the Satinsky clamp interferes with operator's view, the operation becomes difficult, and operation hours become longer.
The present invention provides a surgical instrument for iliac vein surgery to reduce interference between a surgical instrument and an operator's hand during venous anastomosis in iliac vein surgery.
The present invention also provides a surgical instrument for iliac vein surgery in which a position and a rotation angle thereof are easily controlled by adjusting a height control part and a rotating part.
The present invention provides a surgical instrument for an iliac vein surgery, including a pressurizing part, an inclined part, a height control part, and a handle part. The pressurizing part fixes an iliac vein. The inclined part is disposed at an end of one side of the pressurizing part and inclined with respect to the pressurizing part. The height control part is disposed at an end of an opposite side to the one side of the pressurizing part to control a height thereof. The handle part is disposed at an end of the height control part.

The handle part (50) disposed at the end of the height control part 40 has a predetermined length and includes a circular ring (52) disposed at an end of the handle part (50). The shape of the circular ring (52) should not be limited to the circular shape.
Then, a rotating part (70) is selectively equipped with the height control parts (40, 40a, 40b) or the handle parts (50, 50a, 50b) to rotate the handle parts (50, 50a, 50b) according to the condition of the patient, and thus the surgical instrument (10) may make contact with the patient's body. The rotating part 70 will be described with reference to
The rotating part (70) shown in
In detail, the rotating part (70) may be obtained and operated by inserting the rotation protrusion (72a) of the second separating part (72) into the rotation coupling hole (71a) of the first separating part (71) after an angle of the rotation protrusion (72a) is adjusted.
In this case, a thru-hole (73a) is formed through a center portion of each of the first and second separating parts (71, 72), a fixing bolt (74a) is inserted into the thru-hole (73a) at one side, and a fixing nut (75a) is engaged with the fixing bolt (74a) at the other side opposite to the one side.

Then, the rotating part (70) is installed at the end of the height control part (40) or the handle part (50) to completely assemble the surgical instrument (10) for the Iliac vein surgery. To this end, the rotating part (70) includes the first and second separating parts (71, 72) separated from each other. The rotation coupling hole (71a) having the gear shape is formed in the first separating part (71), and thus the thru-hole (73a) is formed through the center portion of the first separating part (71). The rotation protrusion (72a) having the gear shape is protrusion-formed in the second separating part (72), and thus the thru-hole (73a) is formed through the center portion of the second separating part (72). The fixing bolt (74a) is inserted into the thru-hole (73a) at one side, and the fixing nut (75a) is engaged with the fixing bolt (74a) at the other side opposite to the one side.
Here, the assembling order of the surgical instrument for the iliac vein surgery should not be limited to the above-mentioned order.
Hereinafter, the state of use of the surgical instrument for the iliac vein surgery will be described.
First, the upper control portion (44) is inserted into the lower control portion (41) of the height control part (40), the upper control portion 44 is controlled to adjust the height of the surgical instrument in accordance with the condition of the patient, and then the fixing part (46) is spiral-engaged with the screw-engaging hole (43) and the screw-engaging recess (45).
Then, the rotating part (70) equipped with the height control part (40) or the handle part (50) is operated to control the angle of the handle part (50).
That is, the rotation protrusion (72a) of the second separating part (72) is inserted into the rotation coupling hole (71a) of the first separating part (71) after the angle of the rotation protrusion (72a) is adjusted with respect to the first separating part (71). Then, the fixing bolt (74a) is inserted into the thru-hole (73a) formed through each of the first and second separating parts (71, 72) and the fixing nut (75a) is engaged with the fixing bolt (74a).
Next, in the case where the surgical instrument (10) for the iliac vein surgery is used to perform anastomosis during the iliac vein surgery, the operator may pressurize the iliac vein using the pressurizing part (20) while gripping the handle part (50) of the surgical instrument (10) for the iliac vein surgery.
Since the handle part (50) is in close contact with the patient's body as possible, the interference between the surgical instrument and the operator's hands may be minimized.
