Surgical device for removing tissue cells from a biological structure especially for liposuction
In order to reduce the required separating and suction forces on the operational handpiece ( 1 ), the slit of the nozzle ( 8 ) is inclined at an angle (A) in relation to the plane of the axis of the injection cannula ( 5 ) and the angle (A) is selected in such a way that a flat liquid jet ( 9 ) is formed with at least one separation tip ( 10 ) and a first separation edge( 11 ), in addition to a second separator edge ( 12 ), and a separator surface ( 13 ).
1. A surgical device for removing tissue cells from a biological structure, comprising
a fluid jet device for generating a fluid jet capable of separating cells and a suction device for suctioning off separated tissue cells and the injected fluid,
an operating handpiece connected with the fluid jet device and the suction device,
wherein the operating handpiece comprises an outer suction tube and a co-axial inner injection cannula extending through the suction tube,
the outer suction tube and the inner injection cannula forming therebetween an annular suction channel,
the suction tube includes one or more rows of radial suction openings, and
the distal end of the co-axial injection cannula is closed by a conical tip having a cone base and forming a surface, the surface includes a nozzle slit that forms a flat jet,
wherein the nozzle slit is inclined by an angle (α) with respect to an axial plane of the injection cannula, with the angle (α) being selected so that the flat fluid jet with at least one separation tip, a first separation edge, and a second separation edge and a peeling surface is formed, and wherein
the angle (α) extends from the cone base to one of two visible edges of the conical tip.
2. The surgical device of claim 1 ,
wherein the nozzle slit is V-shaped and forms an angled, flat fluid jet.
3. The surgical device of claim 1 ,
wherein the angle (α) is formed in a direction opposite to the conical tip and the nozzle slit extends parallel to at least one of the two visible edges of the conical tip.
4. The surgical device of claim 3 ,
wherein the nozzle slit is V-shaped and forms an angled fluid jet.
5. The surgical device of claim 1 ,
wherein at least two separate nozzle jets are arranged on the surface of the conical tip, which produce diverging flat fluid jets, which together assumed the shape of an impeller.
6. The surgical device according to one or more of claims 1 ,
wherein the suction tube has as many rows of suction openings as there are peeling surfaces, and each row of suction openings is oriented towards the side of the peeling surface and the location of at least one of the separation tips.
