Product Overview
Trocars are laparoscopic access ports used to create and maintain transabdominal entry during minimally invasive surgery. They provide a sealed pathway for insertion of laparoscopic instruments, insufflation of the abdominal cavity, and removal of specimens through the working channel.
Design and Construction
The device has a rigid metallic cannula with a tapered obturator tip for controlled tissue penetration and a proximal housing that supports instrument exchange. A side port on the hub provides gas insufflation and maintains pneumoperitoneum during endoscopic procedures. The long shaft preserves access through the abdominal wall, while the smooth cylindrical body supports stable passage of cameras, graspers, scissors, and stapling instruments. The construction uses surgical grade metal components with a precision machined finish for consistent insertion and reliable sealing.
Surgical Applications
This access device is used in laparoscopic cholecystectomy, appendectomy, hernia repair, gynecologic laparoscopy, and colorectal surgery. It supports general surgery, gynecology, urology, and bariatric procedures that require controlled entry into the peritoneal cavity. The port also supports specimen extraction and repeated instrument exchange during diagnostic and operative endoscopy. It is used in procedures that require insufflation, visualization, and stable access through the abdominal wall.
Sterilization and Maintenance
The device is compatible with standard hospital reprocessing workflows, including steam sterilization, ethylene oxide, and validated chemical disinfection when specified by the manufacturer. Reprocessing requires thorough cleaning of the cannula, obturator, seals, and stopcocks, followed by inspection for wear, residue, and damage before reuse.
Material and Build Quality
The trocar is manufactured from surgical grade stainless steel with a polished corrosion resistant surface and precision fitted hub components. The rigid metal shaft and obturator provide high mechanical strength, while the smooth finish supports repeated sterilization and reduces surface retention of debris.
Recommended Settings
This instrument is used in operating rooms that perform minimally invasive abdominal surgery, endoscopy suites, and ambulatory surgical centers. It is also suited to hospital surgical departments and specialty clinics that perform laparoscopic diagnostic and therapeutic procedures requiring dependable access ports.
Summary
Trocars provide controlled laparoscopic access, maintain insufflation, and support repeated instrument exchange during minimally invasive surgery. They are available through MedPrax Market for surgical and endoscopic use.
