Automatic device for suture in anastomosis surgery interventions
نویسنده
چکیده
A common procedure in the treatment of cancer of colon, which has big incidence in occidental population, is the union of the two extremes of intestine after removing a tumor (see image 1). This procedure, called anastomosis can be done in two different ways: With manual suture, where the surgeon sews with special yarn and needle the ends of the intestine in a complex and long procedure. Using a surgical stapler (special mechanic device) that unites the two extremes with metallic staples.

Background In this study, given the importance of gastrointestinal anastomosis in surgical procedures, attempts have been made to compare the results of employing magnetic compression anastomosis and magnetic coils in intestinal anastomosis of rats. Materials and Methods This study was an experimental trial on 60 rats which had been randomly divided into two experiment (30) and control (30) gro...
متن کاملNew device for saphenous vein-to-aorta proximal anastomosis without side-clamping
BACKGROUND Side clamping to perform saphenous vein-to-aorta proximal anastomosis is a well known cause of cerebral embolization during coronary bypass surgery. Automatic and manual devices have been introduced to avoid aortic clamping and facilitate proximal anastomosis but the manual ones only allow the traditional hand-sewing running suture. Nevertheless, they are not easy to use and very exp...

BACKGROUND Robot-assisted anastomosis holds great promise for the future. To secure surgery quality, some key process factors, such as the force arrangement of sutures, should be provided because of the lack of haptic feedback in robotics systems METHODS A model of anastomosis is presented to establish the mechanical relationship between vessel and sutures. Stress distribution of the vessel l...

BACKGROUND Due to differences in surgical operations between free-hand and robot-assisted vessel anastomosis, there exist new challenges in applying the manipulation criteria of free-hand surgery to robot-assisted surgery in order to guarantee successful completion of the surgical procedure. METHODS A mathematical model is established to optimize the process variables in vessel anastomosis. T...
متن کاملA New Brace for Maintaining the Neck in a Suitable Position Following Tracheal Reconstruction
Segmental resection and end-to-end anastomosis is the treatment of choice for patients suffering from tracheal stenosis for whom conservative management is not planned. A complication of this procedure is tension-induced anastomotic failure. To prevent this complication, maintaining the neck in full flexion by means of a suture between the chin and upper chest is a traditional approach. We have...
