Definitions

  • the invention relates to an electrosurgical instrument, in particular for bronchoscopy, comprising a guide catheter for introducing an applicator into body lumens along an insertion direction.
  • the invention relates to a guide catheter and a method for introducing an applicator into body lumens.
  • Electrosurgical instruments and guide catheters of the aforementioned type are known in the art. They are used in particular for introducing one or more applicators into body lumens, in particular into the bronchi.
  • Electrosurgical applicators may also be referred to as applicator or application probes and serve, in particular, for the coagulation and / or ablation of biological tissue and / or deposits.
  • An applicator is usually guided along an insertion direction and usually relative to the guide catheter movable in a lumen of the guide catheter.
  • the direction of insertion is understood to be a direction in which a guide catheter or an electrosurgical instrument is introduced into a body lumen. Due to anatomical conditions and because a guide catheter or an electrosurgical instrument can be flexibly designed, the
  • Insertion direction is not necessarily a straight line. Therefore, the feed direction in which the guide catheter or the electrosurgical instrument is essentially advanced is considered as the insertion direction.
  • the insertion direction therefore also corresponds essentially to a longitudinal axis of the guide catheter or of the electro-surgical instrument.
  • the applicator usually has an elongated applicator shaft on which a distal applicator electrode is usually arranged, which can form a distal end of the applicator shaft and furthermore a surface portion of the applicator shaft.
  • a distal end of the distal applicator electrode usually an applicator tip is formed, which may be rounded or pointed or provided with an additional cutting electrode.
  • Such applicators serve, in particular, to deliver high-frequency electrical current to surrounding tissue and are also referred to as coagulation or ablation instruments.
  • Monopolar applicators require only one electrode. In use, this electrode interacts with a large return or neutral electrode, which also communicates with a patient's body.
  • Applicators with at least two applicator electrodes, preferably a distal and a proximal applicator electrode, are provided for a bipolar application.
  • Such bipolar coagulation or ablation instruments can be subjected to a high-frequency (HF) voltage of different potential (bipolar), whereby the tissue surrounding the electrodes is heated to such an extent that it dries out and / or denatures the body's own proteins.
  • HF high-frequency

  • the site of action usually lies in a body tissue adjacent to the body lumen.
  • this site of action lies in the bronchi of the lung.
  • To reach the site of action with a distal applicator tip it is therefore usually necessary to penetrate into the body tissue adjacent to the body lumen.
  • the applicator tip when the site of action lies in the bronchi, the applicator tip often has to penetrate into a bronchial wall, which may be cartilaginous.
  • Applicators therefore often have a mechanically-cutting / puncturing applicator tip for mechanical puncturing.
  • this can be disadvantageous because such a mechanically dende / puncturing Applikatorspitze example, unwanted damage to a guide catheter and / or unwanted injury to body tissue may occur.
  • high puncturing forces or impacts are sometimes required in order to allow a mechanically cutting / puncturing applicator tip to penetrate into a cartilaginous bronchial wall, which can lead to an unintentional change in position of the applicator.
  • Electrosurgical instruments are known in which a cutting electrode with a substantially smaller surface is provided at the distal end in addition to the distal coagulation or ablation electrode, as described for example in DE 10 2012 220 682.5.

  • the counter-sleeve 130, 330 may preferably be arranged radially within a guide catheter, that is to say in the inner lumen of a guide catheter.
  • the distal end of the counter-sleeve 130, 330 is bevelled and formed as a cutting element 131, 331 and thus can advantageously cut or separate the part of a bronchial wall sucked into a radial suction opening of a guide catheter surrounding the counter-sleeve 130, 330.
  • the embodiment of the counter-sleeve 330 shown in FIG. 4b has a further preferred feature: the jacket of the counter-sleeve 330 is cut in a radial region and deformed such that a part 333 of the jacket of the counter-sleeve 330 projects radially inwardly into the counter-sleeve and the jacket the counter-sleeve 330 has a radial opening 332, can escape from the counter-sleeve 330 through an applicator guided in the interior of the counter-sleeve 330 in the exit direction X, wherein the part 333 of the jacket projecting into the interior of the counter-sleeve 330 advantageously provides a guide aid for the guide radial opening 332 exiting applicator forms.
  • the illustrated embodiments of the electrosurgical instrument or guide catheter according to the invention have in common that, by providing at least one cutting element, the part of the bronchial tube sucked through a radial suction opening Chialwand weakened by a cut and thus the penetration of an applicator in the bronchial wall is significantly simplified at this weakened point.
  • the cutting element is arranged and designed such that a cut can be made by a substantially axial movement of the guide catheter and / or the counter sleeve.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un instrument électrochirurgical, un cathéter de guidage et un procédé d'insertion d'un applicateur dans une lumière d'un corps dans une direction d'insertion. L'instrument électrochirurgical comprend un cathéter de guidage servant à insérer un applicateur dans une lumière d'un corps dans une direction d'insertion et une contre-douille, la contre-douille et le cathéter de guidage étant déplacés axialement l'un par rapport à l'autre, et le cathéter de guidage comportant dans une région distale au moins un orifice d'aspiration radial et l'instrument électrochirurgical étant conçu pour générer une dépression dans le cathéter de guidage, et un élément de coupe étant en outre disposé au niveau de l'orifice d'aspiration et/ou d'une extrémité distale de la contre-douille.
