Abstract

See full text

A trocar for arthroscopy and other endoscopic surgeries is provided, including a diaphragm seal, in which the assembly as a whole provides adequate insufflation of the body compartment during a procedure, while limiting or eliminating the leakage of insufflation fluid from the rear of the trocar, thus maintaining adequate insufflation pressure management. The design, placement, and spacing associated with said diaphragm seal provides an enhanced interface between the diaphragm opening and a surgical instrument inserted through such opening to gain access to the body compartment of a surgical patient.
