Surgical access device including an anchor having a suture retention mechanism
A surgical access device includes a cannula body, an anchor, and a first suture retention mechanism. The cannula body includes a housing and an elongated portion extending distally from the housing. The elongated portion defines a longitudinal axis and a channel extending therethrough. The anchor is disposed in mechanical cooperation with the elongated portion of the cannula body and is longitudinally translatable relative to the elongated portion. The first suture retention mechanism extends laterally from the anchor. A suture-receiving channel is defined between a portion of the suture retention mechanism and a portion of the anchor.
1. A surgical access device, comprising:
a cannula body including a housing and an elongated portion extending distally from the housing, the elongated portion defining a longitudinal axis and a channel;
an anchor disposed in mechanical cooperation with the elongated portion of the cannula body and being longitudinally translatable relative to the elongated portion;
a first suture retention mechanism extending laterally from the anchor, wherein a suture-receiving channel is defined between a portion of the first suture retention mechanism and a portion of the anchor; and
a foam sleeve radially surrounding at least a portion of the elongated portion of the cannula body and disposed distally of the anchor.
2. The surgical access device according to claim 1 , wherein the suture-receiving channel is ring-shaped.
3. The surgical access device according to claim 1 , wherein the first suture retention mechanism includes a cylindrical shoulder in contact with the anchor.
4. The surgical access device according to claim 3 , wherein the first suture retention mechanism includes a disc-shaped arm extending laterally from the cylindrical shoulder.
5. The surgical access device according to claim 4 , wherein the suture-receiving channel is ring-shaped, the suture-receiving channel surrounds the cylinder shoulder, and the suture-receiving channel is disposed between the disc-shaped arm and the anchor.
6. The surgical access device according to claim 3 , wherein the suture-receiving channel surrounds the cylindrical shoulder.
7. The surgical access device according to claim 1 , further including a second suture retention mechanism disposed in mechanical cooperation with the anchor.
8. The surgical access device according to claim 7 , wherein the second suture retention mechanism is on an opposite side of the anchor from the first suture retention mechanism.
9. The surgical access device according to claim 1 , wherein the foam sleeve extends farther from the longitudinal axis than the first suture retention mechanism.
10. The surgical access device according to claim 1 , wherein the foam sleeve is configured to be passed through by a suture.
11. A surgical access device, comprising:
a cannula defining a longitudinal axis;
an anchor disposed in mechanical cooperation with the cannula and being longitudinally translatable relative to the cannula;
a first suture retention mechanism extending laterally from the anchor, wherein a suture-receiving channel is defined between a portion of the first suture retention mechanism and a portion of the anchor; and
a sleeve extending distally from the anchor, wherein the sleeve extends farther from the longitudinal axis than the first suture retention mechanism.
12. The surgical access device according to claim 11 , wherein the sleeve is configured to be passed through by a suture.
13. The surgical access device according to claim 11 , wherein the sleeve is made from foam.
14. The surgical access device according to claim 11 , wherein the suture-receiving channel is ring-shaped.
15. The surgical access device according to claim 11 , wherein the first suture retention mechanism includes a cylindrical shoulder in contact with the anchor.
16. The surgical access device according to claim 15 , wherein the first suture retention mechanism includes a disc-shaped arm extending laterally from the cylindrical shoulder.
17. The surgical access device according to claim 16 , wherein the suture-receiving channel is ring-shaped, the suture-receiving channel surrounds the cylinder shoulder, and the suture-receiving channel is disposed between the disc-shaped arm and the anchor.
18. The surgical access device according to claim 15 , wherein the suture-receiving channel surrounds the cylindrical shoulder.
19. The surgical access device according to claim 11 , further including a second suture retention mechanism disposed in mechanical cooperation with the anchor.
20. The surgical access device according to claim 19 , wherein the second suture retention mechanism is on an opposite side of the anchor from the first suture retention mechanism.
