摘要:
Methods and systems are provided for harvesting at least a portion of a blood vessel, such as the radial artery in the upper extremity and the saphenous vein in the lower extremity. In certain embodiments, an endoscopic surgical system includes a blunt tip trocar (BTT) for insertion into an incision in the extremity, a cannula for insertion through the BTT, a bisector/bipolar device, and an endoscope. The endoscope may have a dissection tip at its distal end for dissecting tissue from the blood vessel and, with the tip removed, may provide a visual field at its distal end. The endoscope is sized to fit into the cannula and provides visualization of the blood vessel during bisection with the bisector/bipolar device.

The present invention provides systems and methods for minimally invasive endoscopic surgical procedures. In certain embodiments, the minimally invasive endoscopic surgical systems comprise a harvesting cannula having a cylindrical body sized to receive an endoscope and having a length of about 20 cm to about 26 cm, a bisector/bipolar device having finger grooves and/or other ergonomic/non-slip features, and/or a suction device to clear a visual field of the endoscope, as well as methods for using such systems.

The present invention relates to methods and systems for endoscopic fasciotomies. In certain embodiments such methods include dissecting tissue down to the fascia using an endoscopic dissector, lifting the fascia off tissue, vascular structures, muscle, and/or nerves, cauterizing and cutting the fascia using a bisector/bipolar device inserted through a cannula, retracting the cannula, and closing the incision site. A suction device introduced via the cannula may be used to apply suction to remove blood, tissue, irrigation fluid and/or other debris with the cannula in situ.

The present invention provides systems and methods for minimally invasive endoscopic surgical procedures. In certain embodiments, the surgical procedures include harvesting of a deep basilic or cephalic vein for creation of a brachial-basilic or brachial-cephalic AV fistula, with simultaneous transpositioning, harvesting of a deep basilic or cephalic vein for transposition of an existing brachial-basilic or brachial-cephalic AV fistula, and ligating and excising an aneurysmal radial-cephalic, brachial-cephalic, or brachial-basilic AV fistula from the upper or lower arm.
