Definitions
- the present invention relates to an endoscope for the intestinal tract from the rectum to the sigmoid colon, the descending colon, the transverse colon, and the ascending colon, and more particularly to an accident during insertion into the intestinal tract and a patient's pain.
- the present invention relates to an endoscope and an endoscope accessory that can be reduced. Endoscope of the present invention
- An endoscope for a long and complex intestinal tract that includes the free intestine, such as the sigmoid colon and the transverse colon, which are anatomically mobile and highly extensible, and the fixed intestine, such as the ascending colon and the descending colon, which do not move much.
- the free intestine such as the sigmoid colon and the transverse colon
- the fixed intestine such as the ascending colon and the descending colon
- the free intestinal part is bent at the transition to the fixed intestine (ascending colon, descending colon) in order to bend and stretch the intestinal wall freely by pushing the sight tube. Curves are inevitably formed. There is a high risk of accidents such as breakage and breakage caused by the endoscope, which is a difficult point to prevent the invasion of the sight tube.
- the technique of endoscopic introduction is such that the practitioner looks at the observation head of the endoscope and checks the state of the lumen of the intestinal tract, while swinging the bendable section and operating the sight tube.
- a method in which both the forward and backward operations are performed together (hereinafter, referred to as the conventional method), that is, a method in which the user slightly climbs over the bend, decompresses the suction from the tip, draws the bend toward himself, and folds in. is there.
- this method tends to lose sense of direction while folding the meandering intestine, which is meandering with the mouse, up and down and up and down.
- insufflation of the intestinal lumen when it is not visible may not always result in a desired endoscopic view. Rather, the diameter of the intestinal tract near the air supply port does not expand, and if the patient is in a left lateral position, the air supply flows upward and may go far in the direction of travel. As a result, the formation of the hairpin curve is further promoted, and the field of vision is rather lost, which is likely to cause difficulties in access.
- the subject often suffers from the extension of the intestinal wall, and it is safe and preferable to shorten the intestinal withdrawal operation performed by bending the bendable section.
- the work efficiency is poor on the deformable and elusive intestinal lining, and the orientation of the current position is easily lost.
- the subject is suffering from prolonged colon disease, it takes more time and effort to process the hairpin curve, the burden on the subject is not small, and there is considerable experience in performing the operation of inserting the endoscope efficiently. The fact is that skill is required.
- the sight tube pushed into the free intestine physically has a strong tendency to always go straight and push the inner wall of the intestine like a rubber balloon wall.
- the sight tube can travel through the curved free intestine only by sliding on the gentle slope of the intestinal lining wall with the help of a lubricant such as jelly applied to the surface of the sight tube and mucus in the intestinal tract. Sight tube It is not easy to change the direction of travel no matter how the angle of entry is manipulated.
- the conditions that enable the course of the sight tube to change are that the deflection due to the resistance to pressing against the hard tissue around the intestinal tract and the deflection due to the gravity applied to the tip of the sight tube are almost combined.
- the inventor's basic philosophy regarding the visual tube insertion operation is that the intestinal tract naturally bends as it bends.
- the present inventor has sought to determine whether the property of the intestinal tract, which has been a bottleneck of the insertion operation, that is, the deformable easy-extensibility, can be used. It is thought that the intestinal tract deformation due to the above-mentioned bending of the tract and the deformation of the inner wall of the intestinal tract due to the suction operation from the side of the sight, which will be described later, that is, the phenomenon in which the inner wall of the intestinal tract is adsorbed and trapped around the insertion part of the sight tube by the above suction, may be used. However, as a result of producing a medium model of the movable space of the visual tube, I thought that there was no other way than to attract and capture the outer circumference of the tube.
- a suction tool having a large number of suction holes is provided in a flexible portion on the outer side of the visual tube near the bendable portion so as to surround the same, and the inner end of the suction tube is connected to this suction tool.

- the suction device of the above-mentioned prior application makes it possible to easily perform the insertion operation into the intestinal lumen without obstructing the visual field of the observation head, and the suction hole formed in the suction device applies suction. If the intestinal lumen from the proximal end of the visual tube insertion to the site where the suction device is located is equally depressurized to enable quick adsorption and capture, and if the visual tube is pulled in the captured state, the intestinal tract will be at hand. The intestinal tract, which is located in front of the observation head, is pulled back, and it is bent. Was gradually linearized.
- the bellows-like folded portion is provided around the bending operation portion (the reference numeral 1b) in the suction device (the reference numeral 2b in the publication).
- the long sight tube portion is pushed into the intestine as much as the stomach is not formed, and the inconvenience that the pain of the patient increases as much
- there is a structural defect that it is difficult to provide a suction tool because the mounting position of the suction tool is located at a distance from the tip by a small distance.
- the present invention solves the problem of easy occurrence, advanced technology, problems that still require skill, and other structural defects at once.
- An object of the present invention is to provide a tubular suction device that is detachably mounted on an observation head of an optic tube without obstructing the field of view, and that a plurality of peripheral devices are provided on a side surface of the tubular suction device so as to face the intestinal wall.

- the transition (SDJ) between the sigmoid colon (S) and the descending colon (D). See Figure 5).
- the pedal switch 7 (FIG. 4) is stepped on to operate the suction pump device 6 (FIG. 4), and suction is performed through the suction port 9 of the suction device 2.
- the lumen of the intestinal tract from the periphery of the suction device 4 to the rectum is decompressed, and the inner wall of the intestinal tract is adsorbed and captured over the inserted bendable section 2 and the entire outer periphery of the intestinal portion of the visual tube.
- the bendable section 1 is promptly bent by an external operation at a right angle or at an acute angle and hooked on the bent portion of the intestinal wall, and the sight tube 1 is pulled to the proximal side (outside) with the hooked state. I do. Then, the intestinal tract is pulled by the hooking and pulling, and is bent in the intestinal tract or in a bellows shape, and folded around the bendable portion 2 and around the intestinal part of the visual tube.
- the sight tube 1 when the sight tube 1 is towed, the curved loop-shaped tip is inserted into the left iliac cavity adjacent to the arcade of the internal iliac artery and vein (see FIG. 6).
- the patient is carefully pushed into the descending colon (D) by performing the operations described in the anatomical details described below.
- the sight tube entering the descending colon (D) in this way reaches the spleen curve approximately linearly going back through the intestinal lumen fixed to the retroperitoneal surface.
- perform bending operation of the bendable operation part 1 to search for the lumen of the transverse colon confirm it in the endoscope field of view, advance the sight tube into the transverse colon through the splenic curve (See Figure 7).
- suction is performed by the suction device 4 and the intestinal tract from the periphery of the suction device 4 to the rectum is sucked.
- the cavity is decompressed and the inner wall of the intestinal tract is bent to adsorb and capture the entire operable part 2 and the outer periphery of the visual tube part.
- the bendable section 2 is promptly bent by an external operation at a right angle to a slight obtuse angle to be hooked on the bent portion of the intestinal wall, and the visual tube 1 is pulled to the proximal side. Then, by the hooking and towing, the intestinal tract is dragged by hand, shortening the transverse colon, and folded in a bellows-like manner. At this time, the bellows-like folding can be performed at the portion of the bendable portion 2.
- the patient slides through the optic tract using the resistance of the posterior abdominal wall, and in particular, in the case of an excessively long transverse colon, inserts while rotating the sight tube in a counterclockwise direction. To move forward. Eventually, a U-shaped hairpin curve is formed just before the hepatic curvature, and the endoscope field of vision is lost. In such a case, apply a counterclockwise rotation to the viewing tube and pull by suction and traction.
- the U-shaped transverse colon is inverted to the inverted U-shape (see Fig. 8), and the hairpin curve is eliminated and the liver curve opens forward.
- the sight tube is sucked without being pushed in, and the sight tube 1 is pulled to orient the ascending colon in a direction in which it can be easily pushed in, and the bending operable portion 2 is turned forward and the suction tube is eliminated. Is inserted in small increments (at this time, it rotates clockwise due to the drag on the right abdominal wall) to reach the cecum.
- the visual tube assumes a figure 7 shape as shown in FIG.
- the sight tube 1 which was inserted from the anus, beyond the rectum, into the sigmoid colon, It is deflected by the sacrum and heads toward the anterior abdominal wall (see Fig. 10 (a) and (b)), curves along the left abdominal wall due to the resistance and gravity of the wall, and then moves along the left abdominal wall. It turns to the left pelvic cavity, passes through the left pelvic cavity (see Fig. 11 (a) and (b)), and then enters the descending colon (D), that is, the S-shaped colon (S) and descends Proceed to the junction (SDJ) with the colon (D) (see Figures 12 (a) and (b)).
- the sigmoid colon is a free intestine, so it grows inevitably when it is inserted. Therefore, the transition to the fixed intestine (SDJ) is reached with a steeply bent hairpin.
- the suction switch device 6 When this position is reached, the suction switch device 6 is operated by stepping on the pedal switch 7, and suction is performed from the suction device 2 provided in the bending operable portion 2. By this suction, the lumen of the intestinal tract from the periphery of the suction tool 4 to the rectum is decompressed, and the inner wall of the intestinal tract is adsorbed and captured over the entire outer periphery of the inserted operable portion 2 and the insertion portion of the flexible viewing tube. You.
- the bendable section 1 is quickly bent to a state close to a right angle for external operation (so-called UP angle operation angle of about 90 degrees) to bend the intestinal wall (so-called hairpin curve).
- UP angle operation angle of about 90 degrees
- the intestinal tract is dragged by the traction, and it is folded in a bellows shape and folded. Sharp hairpin bends disappear.
- a bellows-like fold is also formed around the bendable portion 2 (see FIGS. 13 (a) and 13 (b)).
- the inside of the bellows-like fold-forming portion is under negative pressure and does not stretch, facilitating the subsequent towing operation.
- the bending operable portion 2 which is in a state of a right angle or a little near an acute angle (about 80 degrees) is attached to the arc of the external iliac artery and vein. Locked into the cavity. This locking position is almost fixed, and for Japanese is 25 to 26 cm measured from the anus. Can be relatively easily secured. At this time, the free intestine is in the shortest state around the visual tube (25-26 cm tight ). This is an important three-dimensional coordinate axis in three-dimensional space.
- the bending operable portion 2 is rotated in the left iliac cavity (FIG. 9 ( a) (see b)) and downward from upward.
- the intestine biologically adapts to the slight difference in angle between the descending colon (D) and the optic tract and slides in naturally. So-called twisting and sliding.
- the sigmoid colon is also maintained in its most shortened state, and acts favorably on the optic tract to smooth the slipping of the torsion (see Figs. 14 (a) and (b)). Adjust the scope angle so that it does not come off while pushing in and out of the fixed intestine with slight slight pulling in and out, ie, bending of the SDJ. In fact, the viewing tube and the axis of the descending colon have a slight angle difference. However, when the user adjusts the scope angle while performing the in-out movement, he slides in and pushes in (see Fig. 15 (a) and (b)). Then, the observation head 3 of the optic tract 1 is advanced and inserted, crosses the transition part (SDJ), reaches the center of the descending colon (D), and thereafter slides extremely smoothly to the upper end.
- SDJ transition part
- the sight tube that has entered the descending colon (D) as a result of this indentation goes back approximately linearly through the intestinal lumen fixed to the posterior surface of the peritoneum by the subsequent pushing operation, and reaches the spleen curve. At this position, the bending operation is performed. After locating the lumen and confirming it in the endoscopic field of view, the sight tube is advanced into the transverse colon through the overturning curve as shown in FIGS. 7 and 16 (a) and (b).
- suction is performed from the side via the suction tool 4 attached to the outer periphery of the intuition head 3, and the intestinal inner wall is adsorbed and captured around the introductory portion of the intestinal tract, and the sight tube is inserted while towing.
- the viewing tube can always be operated in a nearly linear state.
- the intestinal wall is composed of four layers: the mucosal layer, the submucosal layer, the muscle layer, and the serosal layer, and the adsorbed layers are at most two layers, the mucosal layer and the submucosal layer.
- FIG. 17 shows an endoscope in which a portion corresponding to an accessory consisting of the suction tool 4 and the suction tube 5 of the embodiment shown in FIGS. It is.
