Definitions
- the invention relates to a retrieval bag for endoscopic surgery with a receiving bag that can be expanded inside the body of a patient.
- retrieval bags are used to isolate, package, and transport tissue fragments from the patient's body through an endoscopic approach.
- Retrieval bags are used to prevent contamination of the surgical site with removed tissue.
- the retrieval bags are folded and inserted into the surgical site via a trocar. They are then expanded to collect tissue once inside the patient.
- the retrieval bags are usually expanded using endoscopic instruments.
- this procedure has the disadvantage that the retrieval bag must always be held with at least one forceps during the operation and kept open at the entrance.
- DE 102015 012 964 B4 discloses an access system for endoscopic surgery, in which a spreader element equipped with multiple spreader arms can be introduced into the surgical area via the trocar.
- the spreader element is equipped with a retrieval bag in such a way that the retrieval bag is deployed upon entry into the surgical area by the radially outwardly extending spreader arms.
- DE 42 42 153 A1 discloses a retrieval bag for minimally invasive surgery. Rib-shaped volume areas are provided for expanding the retrieval bag in the body cavity, which can be filled with a fluid.
- US 5,788,709 A shows a retrieval bag for minimally invasive surgery, which can optionally be double-walled.

- the receiving bag be designed as a double-walled bag, wherein the two bag walls are connected to one another via webs, and the fluid can be introduced into the space between the two bag walls. As soon as the fluid flows into the space between the two bag walls, this space expands and stabilizes, thus automatically expanding the receiving bag formed by the inner bag wall.
- the double-walled nature of the receiving bag further increases security against damage to the bag wall of the receiving bag when shredding tissue pieces within the receiving bag.
- a preferred embodiment of the invention proposes that the receiving bag be designed as a double-walled bag, with the two bag walls being connected to each other via webs designed as tubes, into which the fluid can be introduced to expand the receiving bag.
- the double-walled design also provides additional security against accidental damage to the receiving bag.
- the receiving bag be suspended from an external support structure, wherein the support structure consists of tubes into which the fluid can be introduced to expand the receiving bag. As soon as the fluid flows into the support structure formed from tubes, this support structure expands and stabilizes, thus automatically expanding the receiving bag suspended from the support structure.
- these tubes expand and stabilize, automatically expanding the collection bag suspended from them.
- the fluid can be introduced into the tubes completely or in sections.
- the invention further proposes that the support structure be redundantly formed from a plurality of hoses that can be filled with the fluid independently of one another.
- the invention proposes that the tubes be designed as film tubes.
- the invention further proposes that the tubes forming the webs surround the receiving bag in the form of a polygonal honeycomb structure.
- the polygonal honeycomb structure makes it possible to create a dimensionally stable structure with just a few tubes that supports the receiving bag.
- the polygonal honeycomb structure consists of pentagons and/or hexagons.
- pentagons and/or hexagons By combining pentagons and/or hexagons, a spherical shape of the webs can be easily formed, as is known, for example, from the outer shell of soccer balls.
- the invention proposes that the tubes forming the webs or the support structure, or the space between the two bag walls, be filled with the fluid from outside the body via a fluid tube. This allows the fluid to be easily and precisely metered into the tubes of the support structure, for example, using a syringe.
- the fluid used to expand the receiving bag be air.
- CO2, helium, water, or a medical rinsing fluid as the fluid.
- a practical embodiment of the invention further proposes that the receiving bag has the shape of a dome, hemisphere or sphere.
- the tubes forming the webs or the support structure are connected completely or only partially to the bag walls of the receiving bag.
