摘要： A method of treating tissue comprises introducing into a hollow organ a support device and, after insertion, arranging the support device into a non-yielding configuration substantially filling the hollow organ and substantially preventing walls of the hollow organ from moving inward in combination with inducing contraction of the hollow organ around the support device to cut off blood flow through at least a portion of the walls of the hollow organ and removing the support device after blood flow has been cut off for a predetermined time. A system to treat tissue comprises a support device which, in a first configuration, is sized and shaped for insertion into a hollow organ and an expansion mechanism for expanding the support device from the first configuration to a second configuration in which the support device substantially fills the hollow organ providing a non-yielding support so that, if the hollow organ is contracted around the support device, blood flow through at least a portion of a wall of the hollow organ is cut off.

摘要： Embodiments include a method of performing a medical procedure in a patient. The method includes inserting a first working instrument and a second working instrument through an opening in the patient, creating an incision in body tissue inside the patient using at least one of the first and second working instruments, and advancing the second working instrument through the incision to position the second working instrument at a work site inside the patient. The method also includes positioning the first working instrument at the work site without advancing the first working instrument through the incision and performing a procedure at the work site inside the patient using the first and second working instruments.

摘要： A medical device allows movement control of a distal end portion of the medical device and is adapted for one-handed operation. The medical device is capable of omni-directional control of the distal end portion of the device. The device has an elongated member including a deflectable portion at a distal end portion of the elongated member. The device also has a control portion disposed on the elongated member. This control portion can be a handle for one-handed use by an operator of the medical device. The control portion comprises an elastic element and a flexible element. Angular movement of a first portion of the control portion with respect to a second portion of the control portion results in amplification of that angular movement in the deflectable portion of the device.
