Transcecal ileostomy set
Described herein is a transcecal ileostomy set including a balloon catheter equipped with a blocking balloon, which serves for obstruction of a small intestine, and a fixation balloon, which serves for fixation of the balloon catheter inside the large intestine when inflated. Furthermore, it includes a holder, adapted to be fixed to a patient's body from the outside, which serves for closing a large intestine wall by tightening a bioresorbable loop passing through the large intestine wall and abdominal wall. A rotary part of the plastic holder may be affixed with a protrusion serving as a block when turning to tighten the bioresorbable loop.
1. A transcecal ileostomy set designed for drainage of intestinal fluids from the small intestine, comprising:
a balloon catheter adapted to be percutaneously introduced through an abdominal wall and a large intestine wall into the small intestine, including
a fixation balloon affixed to a distal portion of the balloon catheter, and
a blocking balloon affixed to the distal portion of the balloon catheter; and
a holder to hold the balloon catheter outside a human body when the transcecal ileostomy set is in use,
whereby, when the fixation balloon is inflated in the large intestine, it fills substantially an entire lumen thereof, and when the blocking balloon is inflated in the small intestine behind the Bauhin valve, it obstructs substantially an entire lumen thereof, and
wherein the holder further comprises a stable part adapted to be fixed to a surface of the human body, and a rotary part adapted to tighten a bioresorbable loop by turning, whereby, when the transcecal ileostomy set is in use, the bioresorbable loop purses the large intestine wall until closed.
2. The transcecal ileostomy set of claim 1 , wherein the bioresorbable loop comprises absorbable polydioxanone.
3. The transcecal ileostomy set according to claim 1 , adapted such that when the rotary part is rotated in a first rotational direction from a default position to a tightened loop position, the bioresorbable loop is simultaneously tightened due to being caught by a protrusion, which simultaneously closes an incision in the large intestine wall.
4. The transcecal ileostomy set according to claim 3 , adapted such that rotational movement of the rotary part in a second rotational direction is blocked by a toothing and latch mechanism, wherein the first rotational direction is opposite the second rotational direction.
