以下、本発明の実施の形態について、添付図面を参照して説明する。図1は、本発明の一実施形態に係る硝子体切除器具の斜視図である。図1に示すように、硝子体切除器具1は、直線状に延びる中空の外筒10と、外筒10の基端部に固定された本体20とを備えており、外筒10の内部には、後述する切断部材が設けられている。本体20は、軸方向の中央に括れ状に形成された把持部21を有しており、施術者が指先で把持部21を把持して作業を行うことができる。本体20の基端側には吸引部22が設けられており、施術時には吸引部22を真空ポンプ等の真空吸引源(図示せず)に接続して使用する。   Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a vitrectomy device according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, the vitrectomy device 1 includes a hollow outer cylinder 10 that extends linearly and a main body 20 that is fixed to a proximal end portion of the outer cylinder 10. Is provided with a cutting member to be described later. The main body 20 has a gripping portion 21 formed in a constricted shape at the center in the axial direction, and a practitioner can perform work by gripping the gripping portion 21 with a fingertip. A suction part 22 is provided on the proximal end side of the main body 20, and the suction part 22 is connected to a vacuum suction source (not shown) such as a vacuum pump during use.

図2は、図1に示す硝子体切除器具の断面図である。また、図3は、図2に示す外筒10を拡大して示す断面図である。図2および図3に示すように、外筒10の先端部外周面には、開口部11が形成されている。開口部11の開口面は、外筒10の軸線Lに対して傾斜しており、開口部11の先端部11aは、外筒10の先端を閉塞する剥離部12に連接されている。剥離部12は、外筒10の外径と略同径の半球状であり、先方に向けて膨出するように形成されている。剥離部12において、開口部11との連接部11aから開口部11の先方に突出する部分にはすくい面12aが形成されており、硝子体手術において、増殖膜の除去などに用いることができる。   FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of the vitrectomy device shown in FIG. FIG. 3 is an enlarged sectional view of the outer cylinder 10 shown in FIG. As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, an opening 11 is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the distal end portion of the outer cylinder 10. The opening surface of the opening portion 11 is inclined with respect to the axis L of the outer cylinder 10, and the distal end portion 11 a of the opening portion 11 is connected to the peeling portion 12 that closes the distal end of the outer tube 10. The peeling portion 12 has a hemispherical shape that is substantially the same diameter as the outer diameter of the outer cylinder 10 and is formed so as to bulge toward the tip. In the peeling portion 12, a rake face 12a is formed at a portion protruding from the connecting portion 11a to the opening portion 11 to the tip of the opening portion 11, and can be used for removing a proliferation membrane in vitreal surgery.

切断部材30は、軸体31の外周面に螺旋状に設けられており、硝子体を切断するためのエッジ部30aが外縁に形成されている。エッジ部30aは、先端側が開口部11から露出しており、切断部材30の回転により硝子体を切断する。切断部材30は、挿入される外筒10と略同じ軸方向長さを有しており、開口部11から外筒10内に取り込まれた硝子体を基端側に向けて搬送する搬送部材としても機能する。なお、切断部材30の先端とすくい面12aとの間には、増殖膜などの膜剥離に障害とならないように隙間が形成されている。   The cutting member 30 is spirally provided on the outer peripheral surface of the shaft body 31, and an edge portion 30a for cutting the vitreous body is formed on the outer edge. The edge portion 30 a is exposed at the tip side from the opening 11, and cuts the vitreous body by the rotation of the cutting member 30. The cutting member 30 has substantially the same axial length as the outer cylinder 10 to be inserted, and serves as a conveying member that conveys the vitreous body taken into the outer cylinder 10 from the opening 11 toward the proximal end side. Also works. Note that a gap is formed between the tip of the cutting member 30 and the rake face 12a so as not to obstruct film peeling such as a growth film.

図3に示すように、切断部材30の先端部には、各ターンの螺旋径(切断部材30を軸線L方向に見たときに、各ターンのエッジ部30aにより形成される形状と実質的に同じ円の径)が、先方に向けて徐々に小さくなるテーパ部30bが設けられている。すなわち、テーパ部30bは、最先のターンの螺旋径D1が最小で、最後のターンの螺旋径D2が最大となっており、切断部材30におけるテーパ部30b以外の各ターンの螺旋径は、D2のまま一定である。テーパ部30bの軸線L方向の長さは特に限定されないが、本実施形態では、開口部11の軸線L方向の長さに略一致させている。テーパ部30bは、開口部11よりも外筒10の基端側まで延びるように形成してもよい。   As shown in FIG. 3, the tip of the cutting member 30 has a spiral diameter of each turn (substantially the shape formed by the edge 30a of each turn when the cutting member 30 is viewed in the axis L direction). A tapered portion 30b is provided in which the diameter of the same circle) gradually decreases toward the tip. That is, the taper portion 30b has the smallest spiral diameter D1 of the earliest turn and the largest spiral diameter D2 of the last turn, and the spiral diameter of each turn other than the taper portion 30b in the cutting member 30 is D2. It remains constant. The length of the taper portion 30b in the axis L direction is not particularly limited, but in the present embodiment, the length of the opening portion 11 is substantially matched with the length of the opening portion 11 in the axis L direction. The tapered portion 30 b may be formed so as to extend to the proximal end side of the outer cylinder 10 with respect to the opening portion 11.

また、切断部材30は、テーパ部30bでの螺旋ピッチP1が、テーパ部以外での螺旋ピッチP2よりも小さくなるように形成されている。本実施形態において、テーパ部30bでの螺旋ピッチP1は一定としているが、軸方向に変化させてもよい。例えば、テーパ部30bの螺旋ピッチが、基端側から先端側に向けて徐々に小さくなるように形成してもよい。この場合においても、テーパ部30bでの最大の螺旋ピッチが、テーパ部30b以外での最小の螺旋ピッチよりも小さいことが好ましい。   Further, the cutting member 30 is formed such that the helical pitch P1 at the tapered portion 30b is smaller than the helical pitch P2 other than the tapered portion. In the present embodiment, the helical pitch P1 at the tapered portion 30b is constant, but may be changed in the axial direction. For example, you may form so that the helical pitch of the taper part 30b may become small gradually toward the front end side from a base end side. Even in this case, it is preferable that the maximum helical pitch at the tapered portion 30b is smaller than the minimum helical pitch other than at the tapered portion 30b.

テーパ部30bにおいて、各ターンのエッジ部30aにより形成される勾配は、開口部11の開口面が軸線Lに対してなす傾斜角度よりも小さく設定されている。これにより、切断部材30が開口面11から突出する部分が先端側ほど多くなり、切断部材30の主として先端側で硝子体を切断することができる。但し、テーパ部30bのエッジ部30aの勾配は、開口部11の開口面の傾斜角度に一致させてもよく、あるいはこの傾斜角度より大きくしてもよい。テーパ部30bのエッジ部30aの勾配は特に限定されないが、例えば、5〜45°の範囲に設定することができる。   In the taper part 30b, the gradient formed by the edge part 30a of each turn is set smaller than the inclination angle formed by the opening surface of the opening part 11 with respect to the axis L. Thereby, the part which the cutting member 30 protrudes from the opening surface 11 increases so that the front end side can cut | disconnect a vitreous body mainly on the front end side of the cutting member 30. FIG. However, the gradient of the edge part 30a of the taper part 30b may be made to correspond to the inclination angle of the opening surface of the opening part 11, or may be made larger than this inclination angle. Although the gradient of the edge part 30a of the taper part 30b is not specifically limited, For example, it can set to the range of 5-45 degrees.

図2に示すように、本体20は、切断部材30により搬送された硝子体を収容する収容室24と、収容室24の基端側に配置された回転室25とを備えている。収容室24と回転室25とは隔壁28により隔離されている。外筒10内で切断部材30を支持する軸体31は、基端側が収容室24を経て回転室25まで延びており、軸受27により回転自在に支持されている。回転室25には、軸体31に固定された羽根車26が配置されており、吸引部22および導入部23を介して外部と連通する。外筒10および軸体31の材料は特に限定されないが、撓みを生じ難い高剛性材料であることが好ましく、例えば、ジルコニア等のファインセラミックスや、タングステンカーバイド等の超硬合金、ステンレス等の金属材料を挙げることができる。切断部材30は無軸であってもよく、軸体31を切断部材30の基端部に接続した構成にすることもできる。   As shown in FIG. 2, the main body 20 includes a storage chamber 24 that stores the vitreous body conveyed by the cutting member 30, and a rotation chamber 25 that is disposed on the proximal end side of the storage chamber 24. The storage chamber 24 and the rotation chamber 25 are separated by a partition wall 28. The shaft body 31 that supports the cutting member 30 in the outer cylinder 10 has a proximal end extending to the rotation chamber 25 through the storage chamber 24, and is rotatably supported by a bearing 27. An impeller 26 fixed to the shaft body 31 is disposed in the rotation chamber 25 and communicates with the outside through the suction part 22 and the introduction part 23. The material of the outer cylinder 10 and the shaft body 31 is not particularly limited, but is preferably a high-rigidity material that does not easily bend. For example, fine ceramics such as zirconia, cemented carbide such as tungsten carbide, and metal materials such as stainless steel Can be mentioned. The cutting member 30 may be non-axial, and the shaft body 31 may be connected to the proximal end portion of the cutting member 30.

吸引部22は、本体20の内部に配置されたチューブ状の吸引流路40の一端側に接続されている。吸引流路40の他端側は、収容室24に臨む外筒10の基端側近傍まで延びている。吸引流路40は、回転室25と多数の通気孔42を介して連通しており、吸引部22から真空吸引することにより、導入部23から外気が導入されて回転室25に気流が発生し、羽根車26が軸体31と共に回転する。   The suction part 22 is connected to one end side of a tube-like suction flow path 40 disposed inside the main body 20. The other end side of the suction channel 40 extends to the vicinity of the proximal end side of the outer cylinder 10 facing the storage chamber 24. The suction flow path 40 communicates with the rotation chamber 25 via a large number of vent holes 42, and vacuum suction from the suction portion 22 introduces outside air from the introduction portion 23 to generate an air flow in the rotation chamber 25. The impeller 26 rotates together with the shaft body 31.

図4は、図2に示す外筒10の基端部近傍を拡大して示す断面図である。図2および図4に示すように、吸引流路40の先端には多数の通気孔41が形成されており、吸引部22から真空吸引することにより収容室24が負圧になり、外筒10の開口部11から硝子体などが吸引される。通気孔41は、気体は通過する一方で収容室24に搬送された硝子体は通過できないような大きさであることが好ましく、例えば通気膜などを使用することもできる。なお、本体20の把持部21には外部と連通する補助導入部21aが形成されており、施術時には補助導入部21aを指などで塞いで使用する。   4 is an enlarged cross-sectional view showing the vicinity of the proximal end portion of the outer cylinder 10 shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 4, a large number of vent holes 41 are formed at the tip of the suction flow path 40, and vacuum is sucked from the suction portion 22, whereby the storage chamber 24 becomes negative pressure and the outer cylinder 10. A vitreous body or the like is sucked from the opening 11. The vent hole 41 is preferably sized so that the gas passes but the vitreous conveyed to the storage chamber 24 cannot pass through. For example, a vent film may be used. Note that an auxiliary introduction part 21a communicating with the outside is formed in the grip part 21 of the main body 20, and the auxiliary introduction part 21a is closed with a finger or the like during treatment.

上記の構成を備える硝子体切除器具1は、吸引部22に接続した真空源を作動させることにより、外筒10の開口部11に吸引力が作用すると共に、切断部材30が回転する。したがって、外筒10の先端部を硝子体に押し当てることにより、硝子体が開口部11から外筒10の内部に引き込まれ、この状態で切断部材30が回転することにより硝子体が分断される。分断された硝子体は、開口部11から外筒10の内部に取り込まれ、切断部材30によって基端側に向けて搬送されて、収容室24に収容される。本実施形態の切断部材30は、エッジ部30aが外縁に沿って全体に形成されており、硝子体が外筒10の内部を搬送される間も外筒10の内周面とエッジ部30aとの隙間で硝子体を分断することができるので、硝子体を細分化して確実に搬送することができる。但し、エッジ部30aは、切断部材30のテーパ部30bのみに形成することも可能であり、あるいは、切断部材30が開口部11から露出する部分のみに形成することも可能である。   In the vitrectomy instrument 1 having the above-described configuration, by operating a vacuum source connected to the suction unit 22, a suction force acts on the opening 11 of the outer cylinder 10 and the cutting member 30 rotates. Therefore, the vitreous body is drawn into the outer cylinder 10 from the opening 11 by pressing the tip of the outer cylinder 10 against the vitreous body, and the vitreous body is divided by rotating the cutting member 30 in this state. . The divided vitreous body is taken into the outer cylinder 10 from the opening 11, conveyed toward the proximal end side by the cutting member 30, and accommodated in the accommodation chamber 24. In the cutting member 30 of the present embodiment, the edge portion 30a is formed entirely along the outer edge, and the inner peripheral surface of the outer tube 10 and the edge portion 30a are also transmitted while the vitreous body is conveyed inside the outer tube 10. Since the vitreous body can be divided by the gap, the vitreous body can be subdivided and reliably conveyed. However, the edge portion 30 a can be formed only on the tapered portion 30 b of the cutting member 30, or can be formed only on a portion where the cutting member 30 is exposed from the opening 11.

本実施形態の切断部材30は、先端部にテーパ部30bを有することで、外筒10の内周面と、切断部材30のエッジ部30aとの間に形成される空間が、外筒10の先端側ほど広くなる。したがって、開口部11から外筒10内に取り込まれた硝子体が外筒10の先端部に滞留し易くなるため、切断部材30の回転により、テーパ部30bのエッジ部30aで硝子体を繰り返し切断してから、基端側に搬送することができる。更に、開口部11の近傍で切断された硝子体は、テーパ部30bのエッジ部30aが形成する勾配によって外筒10の先端側に案内されるため、上述した外筒10の先端部における硝子体の滞留が促される。こうして、硝子体を細かく分断して搬送することができるので、硝子体の搬送に伴う外筒10の詰まりを防止して、硝子体の切除を確実に行うことができる。   The cutting member 30 of the present embodiment has a tapered portion 30 b at the tip, so that a space formed between the inner peripheral surface of the outer cylinder 10 and the edge portion 30 a of the cutting member 30 is the outer cylinder 10. The tip side becomes wider. Therefore, since the vitreous body taken into the outer cylinder 10 from the opening 11 is likely to stay at the tip of the outer cylinder 10, the vitreous body is repeatedly cut at the edge portion 30a of the tapered portion 30b by the rotation of the cutting member 30. Then, it can be conveyed to the base end side. Furthermore, since the vitreous body cut in the vicinity of the opening 11 is guided to the distal end side of the outer cylinder 10 by the gradient formed by the edge portion 30a of the tapered portion 30b, the vitreous body at the distal end portion of the outer cylinder 10 described above. Is encouraged. Thus, since the vitreous body can be divided and transported, the clogging of the outer cylinder 10 accompanying the transport of the vitreous body can be prevented, and the vitreous body can be cut off reliably.

また、テーパ部30bでの螺旋ピッチP1を、前記テーパ部30b以外での螺旋ピッチP2よりも小さくすることで、テーパ部30bにおいてはエッジ部30aによる硝子体の細分化を促しつつ、テーパ部30b以外では、硝子体の広い搬送空間を確保することができる。したがって、搬送中の硝子体による外筒10の詰まりをより確実に防止することができる。   Further, by reducing the helical pitch P1 at the tapered portion 30b to be smaller than the helical pitch P2 other than the tapered portion 30b, the tapered portion 30b promotes the subdivision of the vitreous body by the edge portion 30a. In other cases, a wide conveyance space of the vitreous body can be secured. Therefore, clogging of the outer cylinder 10 due to the vitreous body being conveyed can be prevented more reliably.

また、本体20が、切断部材30により外筒10内を搬送された組織を収容する収容室24と、切断部材30に軸体31を介して連結された羽根車26が配置された回転室25とを備えており、収容室24および回転室25は、吸引流路40介して接続された吸引部22を介して外部と連通しているので、吸引部22から収容室24および回転室25を真空吸引することにより、切断部材30を回転させると共に、開口部11から組織を吸引することができる。したがって、切断部材30の駆動源として電動モータ等を使用した場合の振動の発生を防止することができ、硝子体の除去を容易且つ正確に行うことができる。   The main body 20 has a storage chamber 24 for storing the tissue conveyed through the outer cylinder 10 by the cutting member 30, and a rotating chamber 25 in which an impeller 26 connected to the cutting member 30 via a shaft 31 is disposed. Since the storage chamber 24 and the rotation chamber 25 communicate with the outside through the suction portion 22 connected via the suction flow path 40, the storage chamber 24 and the rotation chamber 25 are connected from the suction portion 22. By vacuum suction, the cutting member 30 can be rotated and tissue can be sucked from the opening 11. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the occurrence of vibration when an electric motor or the like is used as the drive source of the cutting member 30, and the vitreous body can be removed easily and accurately.

また、本実施形態の上記構成によれば、外筒10内を搬送される硝子体が多量になって開口部11からの吸引力が低下すると、これに応じて回転室25内の気流の流速が高くなり、羽根車26の回転数が増加するため、切断部材30による搬送能力を高めることができる。したがって、分断した硝子体の搬送を確実に行うことができる。   Moreover, according to the said structure of this embodiment, when the vitreous body conveyed in the outer cylinder 10 becomes large and the attraction | suction force from the opening part 11 falls, according to this, the flow velocity of the air current in the rotation chamber 25 is reduced. And the rotational speed of the impeller 26 is increased, so that the conveying capability of the cutting member 30 can be increased. Therefore, the divided vitreous body can be reliably conveyed.

本実施形態の切断部材30は、開口部11から露出するエッジ部30aが開口部11の開口面から外部に突出しており、これによって硝子体を確実に切断できるように構成しているが、切断対象となる硝子体は、開口部11からの吸引によって外筒10内に引き込まれるため、開口部30aから露出するエッジ部30aが開口部11の開口面から突出しない構成であってもよい。   The cutting member 30 of the present embodiment is configured so that the edge portion 30a exposed from the opening portion 11 protrudes outward from the opening surface of the opening portion 11 so that the vitreous body can be cut reliably. Since the target vitreous body is drawn into the outer cylinder 10 by suction from the opening portion 11, the edge portion 30 a exposed from the opening portion 30 a may not protrude from the opening surface of the opening portion 11.
