Abstract

An endoscopic surgery apparatus is provided, including a tubular member, a handle located on a proximal end of the tubular member, and one or more pivotable arms detachably connected to a distal end of the tubular member. The tubular member has channels along its longitudinal axis, wherein at least one of the channels is an optical channel and at least one other channel is an illumination channel. The arms have guiding channels adapted to receive surgical tools, which direct the surgical tools. The arms are interchangeable with other arms of different configurations. Also, said arms have an open and a closed position, such that when the arms are in the closed position an opening is defined allowing viewing of a surgical site via the optical channel.

Claims (23)

1. An endoscopic surgery apparatus, comprising:
-a tubular member having a plurality of channels along its longitudinal axis;
-a handle located on a proximal end of the tubular member;
-two or more arms pivotably connected to a distal end of the tubular member by hinges;
-wherein said arms have guiding channels passing therethrough adapted to receive endoscopic surgical tools.
2. The endoscopic surgery apparatus of claim 1, wherein the distal end of said tubular member articulates.
3. The endoscopic surgery apparatus of claim 1, wherein said tubular member comprises, in order from its proximal end, a shaft portion coupled to said handle, a series of vertebrae coupled to the shaft portion, and a head member coupled to the most distal vertebra of the series of vertebrae, wherein the head member is the distal end to which the arms are pivotably connected.
4. The endoscopic surgery apparatus of claim 3, wherein the head member is detachable from the series of vertebrae and replaceable with a head member of a different configuration.
5. The endoscopic surgery apparatus of claim 3, wherein the vertebrae are moveable relative to one another via a control on said handle such that the distal end of the tubular member articulates.
6. The endoscopic surgery apparatus of claim 1, wherein said handle includes a mechanism for pivoting the arms between a closed position and open positions.
7. The endoscopic surgery apparatus of claim 6, wherein the mechanism permits locking the arms in any selected position.
8. The endoscopic surgery apparatus of claim 6, wherein the arms are adapted to grasp tissue at a surgical site when the arms are pivoted.
9. The endoscopic surgery apparatus of claim 6, wherein the arms include a blade portion adapted to cut tissue when the arms are pivoted.
10. The endoscopic surgery apparatus of claim 6, wherein the arms are adapted to displace tissue when the arms are pivoted.
11. The endoscopic surgery apparatus of claim 1, wherein said arms are detachably connected to the distal end of the tubular member and are interchangeable with arms of different configurations.
12. The endoscopic surgery apparatus of claim 1, wherein one of said channels is an optical channel for the transmission of images and at least one other of said channels is an illumination channel for the transmission of light.
13. The endoscopic surgery apparatus of claim 12, wherein said arms have a closed position and wherein when the arms are in the closed position an opening is defined for viewing of a surgical site via said optical channel and illumination of a surgical site via said at least one illumination channel.
14. The endoscopic surgery apparatus of claim 13, wherein when the arms are in the closed position they form an obturator shape adapted to temporarily displace tissue during insertion of the endoscopic surgery apparatus into a body.
15. The endoscopic surgery apparatus of claim 1, wherein said tubular member includes at least one working channel adapted to receive an endoscopic surgical tool.
16. The endoscopic surgery apparatus of claim 15, wherein said arms include deflecting members formed thereon for deflecting the endoscopic surgical tool running through said working channel.
17. The endoscopic surgery apparatus of claim 1, wherein said tubular member is formed of a flexible, plastic material.
18. The endoscopic surgery apparatus of claim 12, wherein the handle includes controls for controlling a camera utilizing the optical channel to view a surgical site.
19. The endoscopic surgery apparatus of claim 1, wherein at least one channel is adapted to deliver fluid or gas matter to a surgical site.
20. The endoscopic surgery apparatus of claim 1, wherein at least one channel is adapted to remove fluid, gas, or solid matter from a surgical site.
21. The endoscopic surgery apparatus of claim 1, wherein the distal end of the tubular member is electrically isolated from the proximal end of the tubular member.
22. The endoscopic surgery apparatus of claim 1, wherein the ambient pressure at the distal end of the tubular member may be monitored via one of the channels along the longitudinal axis of the tubular member.
23. An endoscopic surgery apparatus, comprising:
-a tubular member having a plurality of channels along its longitudinal axis;
-a handle located on a proximal end of the tubular member;
-two or more surgical tool guide members detachably connected to a distal end of the tubular member having guiding channels passing therethrough adapted to receive endoscopic surgical tools;
-wherein the surgical tool guide members are interchangeable with other surgical tool guide members of different configurations.
