Definitions

  • This invention relates to surgical securing of any suture, ligature, or similar structure and, more particularly, to devices and methods that allow a physician to quickly secure the suture or ligature material with a knot.
  • the term knot is intend to include any intersection of interlaced material such as a crossing of a line or suture over at least one looped portion in a manner that is intended to secure the line or suture.
  • the devices and methods are especially useful when the physician must create a knot without being able to directly manipulate the structure such as an tntracorporeal knot (i.e., a knot within the body or any structure anatomically direct where use of the hands is difficult, impractical, or impossible).
  • the methods and devices are also directed Io a method of cinching a knot utilizing the device features.
  • suture or suturing shall include such sutures, ligatures, or any like structure.
  • LIS surgery Due to this constraint, extensive training is required by the surgeon before attempting to perform these types of procedures.
  • Another difficulty presented by LIS surgery is the constraint of working in a confined space. The physician must position the instruments used for LIS surgery in this confined space in a particular orientation in relation to one another and in relation to the patient. This restriction of the maneuverability of the instruments adds even more challenges to intracorporeal knot tying.
  • Internal knot tying normally requires at least two operating cannulae (or other access ports) and an associated pair of graspers, otherwise referred to as needle holders or suture holders.
  • two throws are created by manipulating the suture and needle with the graspers.
  • the first throw may be a simple overhead knot or may be a surgeon's knot. Additional throws may be applied over the second throw to provide additional security. It is important that sequential throws are in the proper direction to correctly make the intended knot. For example, inadvertently creating throws in the opposite directions produces a "granny" knot that is less secure than a square knot or surgeon's knot.
  • Fig. 1 A illustrates the square knot and Fig. 1B illustrates a surgeons knot.
  • grasper instruments are used to manipulate a needle 2 and a first end 10 and/or second end 11 of a suture 3.
  • the suture 3 can be a single suture or two ends of separate sutures can be tied together. While the above-described knots are most common, the invention described below can accommodate any type of knot that requires looping or formation of one end of a suture in a particular profile or shape.
  • Figs. 2 A to 2D for suturing of tissue, the physician pierces tissue with the needle 2, and the attached suture 3 is grasped with a first grasper 1.
  • Fig. 2A illustrates the suture 3 then being placed around a second grasper 5, which executes a circular motion and guides the suture 3 with its shank in such a way that the suture 3 is wound in a spiral around the jaw parts 6 of the second grasper 5.
  • Fig. 2B shows the next step.
  • the opposite end of the suture 3, attached to the needle 2 is then grasped with these jaw parts 6 of the first grasper I and drawn through the spiral winding.
  • the so-called base knot is formed.
  • a so-called finishing knot shown in Fig. 20, is tied tightly over the base knot in the same manner.
  • the invention is a suturing method and device that primarily involves a suture assembly consisting of; 1 ) a partially tied surgical knot that is positioned along a suture, and 2) a support structure to maintain the form of the partially tied knot and aid in manipulation and positioning of the partially tied knot.
  • the assembly may include a series of these partially tied knots and structures spaced along the suture length.
  • the partially tied knot will usually consist of a loop or loops, depending on the desired knot configuration.
  • the support structure is a simple clamp or support construct that releasably holds unto the partially tied knot in the desired orientation unto the knot is completed by passage of one end of the suture through the loop or loops of the partially tied knot.
  • the assembly may consist of other elements and features, such as a tether line, a needle passage protector, a clamp release feature, an orientation feature to aid correct direction of the passage suture through the loop or loops, or other enhancing elements and features to facilitate functionality and ease of use.
  • the support structure for releaseably holding the partially tied knot can be minimized in size, thus allowing the entire suture assembly to fit down a cannula and be placed in the body cavity.
  • the support structure and suture can be manipulated and controlled with a standard needle holder, thus eliminating the need for additional specialized, expensive instruments.
  • the support structure is securely held by a needle holder, while the jaws at the distal tip of a second needle holder are advanced through the loop.
  • the first needle holder then releases the support structure, and is then manipulated to grasp the needle near the proximal end.
  • the needle is advanced through or around the desired tissue. As the needle tip is exposed, it is guided into the open jaws of the second needle holder.
  • the jaws of the second needle holder are then closed to securely clamp onto the tip of the needle.
  • the needle is then released by the first needle holder.
  • the first needle holder is used to grasp the support structure and secure it while the jaws of the second needle holder are retracted back through the loop, carrying the needle and suture with it.
  • the support structure is then separated from the loop.
  • the opposing ends of the suture are then put in tension to produce a finished knot Obviously, other methods of use are applicable depending on the design of the support, the design of the knot, and the surgical procedure being performed.
  • the support structure can be produced from a few, or even one, low cost component. This simplicity provides for an effective, low cost solution to reducing the time and difficultly associated with intracorporeal knot tying.
  • One variation of the devices described herein include a ligature and/or suture device configured for creating a knot in a flexible line, comprising a length of suture having a proximal end and a distal end, a loop support member configured to releaseably secures a segment of the suture within a portion of the support member such that the segment forms at least one loop pattern and wherein when one of the proximal or distal ends advances through the loop pattern, the loop support member can selectively release the segment to create a knot.
  • the variations of the devices include a support member configured in a small size such that the entire device can be delivered through a cannula, catheter, introducer, port or trocar and placed inside the body.
  • the devices described herein can be constructed in a simple manner, often from less than two components.
  • a surgical knot fixation assembly comprising a length of suture, a loop support member having a suture receiving portion such that a segment of the suture can be releasably maintained in a loop shape when a portion of the segment of the suture is held within the suture receiving portion.
  • the variations of the surgical fixation assemblies described herein can include a pair of mating jaws, such that upon separation of the jaws, the segment releases from the loop support member. These the mating jaws can be spring biased to close.
  • the suture receiving portion can include or comprise a cavity within the loop support member.
  • the device can include a pair of release surfaces each release surface adjacent to the cavity such that pulling on a first and second ends of the suture cause the suture to move against the release surface and out of the cavity to release the segment from the loop support member.
  • the devices and methods can include a funnel member, where a portion of the segment surrounds the funnel member such that an end of the suture can move within the funnel to cross within the loop shape.
  • the suture contains a plurality of loop support members.
  • the loop support member can form loop shapes that are similar, different, or have combination of shapes.
  • the invention also includes methods of securing tissue.
  • the method includes advancing a suture through or around the tissue, the suture having at least one loop support member, where a segment of the suture is maintained in a loop shape when a portion of the segment of the suture is releasably held in the loop support member, retracting an end of the suture through the loop shape, releasing the portion of the segment suture from the loop support member, and forming at least a partial knot in the suture by pulling the end of the suture.
  • Another method includes advancing a suture through or around the tissue, the suture having at a plurality of segments each held respectively by a plurality of loop support members, each loop support member holding the respective segment of the suture in a partial hitch knot shape, navigating an end of the suture through a first partial hitch knot adjacent to a first loop support member to create a first full hitch knot, releasing the first loop support member from the suture without releasing a second loop support member from the suture, fully cinching the first partial hitch knot by pulling on at least one of the ends of the suture.
