| 20100130993 | Anastomosis device and system - An anastomosis device for forming two lumen-comprising body structures having an un-deployed and a deployed state and switchable from the former to the latter, comprising: a body with an overall cylindrical shape defining a proximal-distal extending axis of and comprising an external essentially cylindrical body part with a lumen and an internal body part at least a portion thereof being deployed within the lumen of the external body part and axially displacable with respect thereto in the switch between the un-deployed and the deployed states; said internal body part having an internal duct extending axially therethrough whereby in the deployed state there is a fluid communication between the distal and the proximal ends of the body; and two tissue-engaging units axially displaced from one another along said axis; at least one of the two units can change its state from a closed state in the un-deployed state of the device to an opened, tissue-engaging state in the deployed state of the device in which said first unit extends in an overall radial direction and is adapted in this state for tight association with internal walls of one of the body structures, such that the combined tissue-engaging action of the two unit holds the two structures together. | 05-27-2010 |
| 20100241161 | SURGICAL FASTENERS AND DEVICES FOR SURGICAL FASTENING - Disclosed is a surgical fastener having a first element, or crown, defining an axis of the fastener. Each prong of the fastener has a protuberance at one end that is received in a depression around an edge of the first element and rotatable in the depression and has a tip at a second end. In an undeployed configuration, each prong passes through a slot of the second element and the tip of each prong is at a first distance from the axis. In a deployed configuration, each prong passes through the prong's slot of the second element, and the tip of each prong is at a second distance from the axis that is greater than the first distance. Also disclosed is a system for surgical fastening including one or more surgical fasteners as disclosed herein and a surgical fastening device configured to deploy the fasteners. | 09-23-2010 |

| 20090209947 | INTERCHANGEABLE TIPS AND TOOL BOX FOR ASSISTING SURGICAL PROCEDURES - A toolbox system for interchanging a variety of interchangeable working tips within a body cavity, comprising:
| 08-20-2009 |
| 20090222029 | CLIP FOR ASSISTING SURGICAL PROCEDURES - The present invention provides a clip for use during surgical procedure, comprising a body, said body is characterized by a main longitudinal axis and having a distal end and a proximal end coupled together by a shaft; said shaft is adapted to reciprocally move along said main longitudinal axis of said body; said shaft is at least partially encapsulated by a sleeve-like enveloping compression spring; said proximal end comprising actuation means; said distal end comprising one movable jaw characterized by at least one open configuration and at least one closed configuration; wherein said transformation is performed by reciprocally and linearly moving said actuation means along said longitudinal axis of said clip such that (i) said shaft is linearly moved towards and away said proximal end of said body; and, (ii) said compression spring is compressed or released such that said at least one movable jaw reconfigured. | 09-03-2009 |
| 20090250081 | DEVICE AND METHOD FOR LENS CLEANING FOR SURGICAL PROCEDURES - The present invention provides a standalone cleaning device for cleaning at least a portion of a surgical instrument, especially the scope, within a body cavity during minimal invasive surgical procedure comprising, at least one cleansing means characterized by an un-deployed configuration in which said device is inserted into said body cavity; and, a deployed configuration in which said portion of said surgical instrument is cleaned; said cleaning means are adapted to be reversibly transformed from said deployed configuration to said un-deployed configuration and from said un-deployed configuration to said deployed configuration; wherein said cleaning of said surgical instrument is obtained by wiping motions of said portion of said surgical instrument over said cleansing material within said body cavity, such that the removal of said surgical instrument during said surgical procedure for cleaning necessity is avoided. | 10-08-2009 |
| 20110124962 | MULTI-COMPONENTS DEVICE, SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ASSISTING MINIMALLY INVASIVE PROCEDURES - The present invention provides an elastic connector (ES) having at least two ends, each of which comprises attachment means for reversibly attaching said ES to at least two components; wherein said ES is characterized by a predetermined default configuration: and, a queue-like configuration in which said ES is adapted to provide simultaneous queue-like insertion or extraction of said at least two components through a tube or endoscope's working channel or a trocar into or from a body cavity; said ES is adapted to be reversibly transformed from said predetermined default configuration to said queue-like configuration and from said queue-like configuration to said predetermined default configuration. | 05-26-2011 |
