    摘要: A surgical device for accessing a pericardial space of a patient, comprising: an elongated, tubular body including a proximal end and a distal end, the tubular body including a longitudinal first channel configured to accept an endoscope therein and a longitudinal second channel configured to accept a pericardial needle therethrough; and an at least partially transparent, repositionable tip disposed at the distal end of the tubular body, the tip including a substantially blunt, distally oriented dissection point and a proximal repositionable connector, the proximal repositionable connector repositionably engaging the tubular body near the distal end of the tubular body so that the tip is repositionable between a closed configuration and an open configuration; wherein, in the closed configuration, the tip substantially covers the distal end of the tubular body and extends distally beyond the distal end of the tubular body; and wherein, in the open configuration, the tip is positioned at least partially beside the distal end of the tubular body so that a distal face of the tubular body is exposed.
