- the two endoscopes of the medical device are similar to that described with reference to FIG. In the remainder of the description, the first endoscope is associated with the reference “A” and the second endoscope (or medical device) with the reference “B”.
- An overtube 2 according to the invention is illustrated in the appended figures. It comprises a tubular body 20 which is flexible and which extends longitudinally.
- the body 20 is for example made of silicone or polyurethane and obtained by extrusion or molding. It has a proximal part 21 and an open distal end 22.
- the length of the body 20 between the two ends 21 and 22 is for example between 50 mm and 1500 mm; its external diameter, or external dimension, is between 10 mm and 30 mm; and its thickness between 1 mm and 3 mm.
- two conduits 23A, 23B are arranged longitudinally in the body 20.
- the first conduit 23A is adapted to accommodate the first insertion tube 10A of the first endoscope 1 A.
- the second conduit 23B is suitable for housing the second insertion tube 10B of the second endoscope 1B.
- These two ducts 23A, 23B open out at the distal end 22.
- the conduits 23A, 23B are configured so that the tubes 10A, 10B can move longitudinally in the body 20.
- the tubes 10A, 10B have an up/down translation movement in the body 20.
- the internal dimensions (diameters) of the ducts 23A, 23B substantially correspond to the external dimensions (diameters) of the tubes 10A, 10B, being however slightly greater, for example from 0.5 mm to 1 mm, to facilitate the movement of said tubes along the longitudinal axis of the body 20.
- the conduits 23A, 23B also allow a rotational movement of the tubes 10A, 10B so that said tubes can pivot on themselves around their longitudinal axis, inside their conduit respectively 23A, 23B.
- the proximal part 21 of the body 20 has a general W-shape. It comprises a first orifice 231 A for the introduction of the first tube 10A into the first duct 23A and a second orifice 231 B for the intro of the second tube 10B in the second conduit 23B.
- a third orifice 233 is also arranged at the level of the proximal part 21 . This third orifice 233 serves to introduce a lubricant simultaneously into the two ducts 23A, 23B.
- This lubricant is for example paraffin oil or glycerin.
- the third orifice 233 has for example a diameter comprised between 1 mm and 10 mm.
- the lubricant used can be contained in a reservoir 239 of the flexible bulb or syringe type, optionally connected to the third orifice 233 by a conduit 235. By manually exerting pressure on the reservoir 239 or the syringe, the lubricant is dispensed into the body 20.
- the first conduit 23A and the second conduit 23B communicate with each other, at least in the length of the body 20 which does not include the proximal part 21, by a passage communication 24.
- the ducts 23A, 23B are separated and are no longer adjacent in the proximal part 21.
- the ducts 23A, 23B are adjacent over their entire length, including in the proximal part 21, and communicate with each other, over their entire length, through the passage 24.
- This passage 24 opens at the level of the third orifice 233.
- the first conduit 23A, the second conduit 23B and the passage 24 are configured such that the body 20 has a cross-section in the shape of an 8 (FIGS. 3a-3d).
- This configuration avoids any extra thickness of the wall of the body 20, which not only makes it possible to optimize its size, but also to reduce the cost of manufacture.
- the two ducts 23A and 23B are symmetrical (same dimensions and same shape).
- the two ducts 23A and 23B are asymmetrical (different dimensions and/or shape), the second duct 23B being smaller than the first duct 23A.
- This asymmetrical configuration reduces the caliber of the body 20.
- an endoscope or other device of smaller size can be installed.
- the first conduit 23A, the second conduit 23B and the passage 24 are also configured so that the two tubes 10A and 10B do not touch each other when they are housed in said conduits. This avoids any overlap and friction of the tubes 10A, 10B between them, likely to interfere with their insertion and / or movement in the body 20.
- the passage 24 is more narrow as the conduits 23A, 23B.
- the overtube 2 is also provided with its own optical vision device 25 which is distinct from the vision devices of the endoscopes or medical devices 1A and 1B.
- the optical vision device 25 is a medical camera in the form of a probe comprising a cord or flexible tube (possibly bendable) at the distal end of which is arranged the image sensor 250 possibly associated with a light source of the LED type or optical fiber(s) ).
- This medical camera makes it possible in particular to obtain another image of the intervention area, and in particular an overall view of the operating field for the organ in question (stomach, duodenum, colon, rectum, etc.).

- the camera 106A of the first endoscope 1A makes it possible to visualize the instrument pinching the gastric wall and forming the fold
- the camera 106B of the second endoscope 1B makes it possible to visualize the instrument suturing this fold
- the camera 250 allows to have a wider image of the intervention area, where these two instruments are simultaneously viewed.
- the image data from the cameras 106A, 106B and 250 contribute to making it possible to obtain a triangulation of the gestures of the operator(s) and can also be combined to obtain a 3D image of the intervention zone.
- the optical vision device 25 includes a connector 251 (for example a USB connector) allowing it to be connected to a video module of an endoscopy column. This connector 251 is placed at the proximal end of the tube of the device 25.
- the optical vision device 25 is installed in the communication passage 24. Referring to Figure 2, the optical vision device 25 is introduced into the passage 24 from a fourth port 234 provided at the level of the proximal part 21 and which opens into said passage 24.
- the fourth orifice 234 has for example a diameter of between 1 mm and 10 mm.
- the optical vision device 25 is installed in a third duct 15 arranged longitudinally in the wall of the body 20.
- This third duct 15 is closed, that is to say that it does not does not communicate with the passage 24 and with the ducts 23A, 23B, at least in the length of the body 20 which does not include the proximal part 21 .
- the ducts 23A, 23B and 15 can be separated or communicated with each other.
- the third duct 15 opens at the level of the distal end 22 of the body 20 (FIG. 2) and opens in the proximal part 21, at the level of the fourth orifice 234.
- the optical vision device 25 can be inserted into the third conduit 15, from the fourth port 234, with the possibility of removal.
- the third duct 15 is then advantageously configured so that the device 25 can move longitudinally in the body 20 (with an up/down translation movement).
- the internal dimensions (diameter) of the third duct 15 correspond substantially to the external dimensions (diameters) of the tube forming the device 25, being however slightly greater, for example from 0.5 mm to 1 mm, to facilitate the movement of said device according to the longitudinal axis of the body 20.
- the duct 15 also allows a rotational movement of the device 25 so that said device can pivot on itself about its longitudinal axis, inside said duct.
- the optical vision device 25 is permanently installed in the third conduit 15, without the possibility of removal.
- the device 25 can in particular be integrated into the wall of the body 20, for example during molding of the latter.
- the third conduit 15 is open, that is to say it communicates with the first conduit 23A and the second conduit 23B, at least in the length of the body 20 which does not include the proximal part 21, through the passage 24.
- the ducts 23A, 23B and 15 can be separated or communicated with each other.
- the third duct 15 opens here again at the level of the distal end 22 of the body 20 (FIG.
- the optical vision device 25 when the optical vision device 25 is installed in the body 20 and housed in the third duct 25, its head 250 protrudes outside of the said duct and of the said body, via the distal end 22 of the latter.
- the image sensor 250 thus protrudes from the body 20 to, in use, be positioned in the body cavity.
- the instrument 3A inserted into the operating channel 104A of the first tube 10A of the first endoscope 1A is a clamp, preferably a clamp with wide jaws (width between 3 mm and 10 mm), which is not traumatic.
- the instrument 3B inserted into the operating channel 104B of the second tube 10B of the second endoscope 1B is a surgical stapler or a mounted clip, ensuring the simultaneous placement of one or more staples or clips (for example the simultaneous placement of several rows of staples or clips).
- the staples or clips used are preferably made of titanium. As an indicative example, their width is approximately 3 mm and their length included between 3mm to 5mm.
- This type of surgical stapler is for example marketed by the companies Ethicon Endo Surgery® or Covidien®.
- the instruments 3A, 3B come out of their respective operating channel 104A, 104B, and are located outside the body 20 to be positioned in the body cavity.
- Figure 5 illustrates the placement of the medical device in the body of a patient P for a bariatric surgery operation.
- the overtube 2 is first inserted from the mouth B of the patient P, into the esophagus O, until the distal end 22 of the body 20 is located in the stomach E. This insertion can be carried out on a guidewire initially placed under gastroscopy control.
- the overtube 2 When the overtube 2 is installed, its proximal part 21 is located outside the mouth B of the patient P, so that the orifices 231 A, 231 B and 233 are accessible.
- the first tube 10A of the first endoscope 1 A is then inserted into the body 20. This insertion is carried out from the inlet port 231 A so that the first tube 10 is housed in the first conduit 23A.
- the tube 10A and/or the first duct 23A are advantageously lubricated beforehand. This insertion is finalized when the distal part 103A and the head 102A of the first tube 10A emerge from the first duct 23A and are located in the stomach E, close to the area of intervention.
- This insertion can be performed under the control of the optical vision device of the first endoscope 1A and/or of the optical vision device 25 specific to the overtube 2.
- the first instrument 3A is then inserted into the operating channel 104A of the first tube 10A through the entry port 110A. This insertion is finalized when the tool (eg: forceps) of the first instrument 3A comes out of the head 102A to be located in the stomach E.
- the second instrument 3B is inserted in the same way into the operating channel 104B of the second tube 10B of the second endoscope
- the instruments 3A, 3B can be actuated from control members 30A, 30B located outside the body of the patient P. [41] If the user needs to move the tools of the instruments 3A, 3B closer to or away from the intervention zone, he can manipulate the endoscopes 1A, 1B to slide and/or pivot the tubes 10A, 10B in their respective ducts 23A, 23B. These movements are preferably accompanied by lubrication of the conduits 23A, 23B from the third orifice 233.
- the tools of instruments 3A and 3B are positioned at the intervention zone.
- This zone is here a region of the gastric wall PG (peritoneum).
- the bending of the distal parts 103A, 103B makes it possible to specifically orient each instrument 3A, 3B, the forceps and the stapler being here oriented at 90°.
- Each instrument 3A, 3B is also viewed by its own camera 106A, 106B and by the camera 250 of the optical viewing device 25. The user therefore has a better view of the intervention zone which he can observe from three angles. different.
- the clamp 3A is positioned perpendicular to the wall PG. This forceps is actuated to pinch the PG wall and come to form a wide fold which can take away the peritoneal layers.
- the stapler or the mounted clip 3B is positioned perpendicular to the clamp 34 and in fact, perpendicular to the fold thus formed.
- the 3B mounted stapler or clip is then operated to staple the fold and hold it in position. There is no seam in the PG wall but simply support with clips or staples, which is much faster and less traumatic for said wall, with no risk of peritoneal invasion.
- a gas air or CO2
- This gas is generally blown in through an insufflation orifice 108 of the endoscope 1A or 1B.
- 231 B, 233, 234 located at the level of the proximal part 21, are advantageously provided with a sealing device.
- this sealing device is in the form of a ring 5 installed on the outer wall of the orifice 231 A, 231 B, 233, 234 and which grips said orifice so as to form a seal with the element which is introduced therein.
- the sealing device is in the form of a valve or an inflatable part cooperating with the element introduced into the orifice 231 A, 231 B, 233, 234 to form a seal against the gas.
- the distal portion 22 of the body 20 is provided with an inflatable element 26.
- This element 26 is for example in the form of a balloon or an inflatable collar fixed on the external wall of the body 20.
- the inflatable part of this balloon or of this collar 26 is for example made of silicone or polyurethane.
- the element 26 is inflated by a fluid (in particular air or water). A configuration where element 26 is inflated is shown by the dotted line in Figure 7.
- the proximal part 21 of the body 20 comprises a fifth orifice 236 for the introduction of the inflation fluid.
- the fifth orifice 236 communicates with a fourth duct 260 arranged longitudinally in the wall of the body 20.
- This fourth duct 260 is closed, that is to say it does not communicate with the passage 24 , nor with the ducts 23A, 23B, 15.
- the distal end 2600 of this fourth duct 260 opens into the inflatable element 26.
- the inflation fluid can be introduced by a pump 237 or a syringe, connected possibly to the fifth port 236 through a conduit 238. Deflation is done in the reverse manner by purging the fluid from the fifth port 236.
- This inflatable element 26 has a dual function. Firstly, it makes it possible to hold the overtube 2 in position in the cavity in which the latter is introduced, without causing trauma. In FIG. 10, when the element 26 is inflated, it acts against the esophageal wall so that the distal part 22 is perfectly maintained in position. The inflatable wall exerts pressure on the esophageal wall, without injuring it. Second, the inflatable element 26 forms a seal against the gas blown into the body cavity. In the example of figure 10, there is no loss through the esophagus O.
