- the living tissue 300 includes a wall portion (urethral wall) that defines the urethral cavity 100, a wall portion (vagina wall) that defines the vaginal cavity 200, and the like.
- the thickness of the living tissue 300 is generally about 5 to 20 mm in the case of an adult female, although there are individual differences.
- the implant is a device that is embedded in the living tissue 300 and supports the urethra by pulling it away from the vaginal wall for the treatment of female urinary incontinence (see FIGS. 8 (f) and 8 (g)). ). As a result, the urethra can be supported, and urine leakage can be prevented.
- the implant for example, a flexible long object can be used.
- the implant is composed of a band 80. This band 80 is called a “sling”.
- the size of the band 80 is not particularly limited and may be set as appropriate.
- the width is preferably about 3 to 15 mm, and the thickness is preferably about 0.2 to 2 mm. .
- constituent material of the belt 80 is not particularly limited.
- various resin materials having biocompatibility can be used.
- the implant is configured by a single band 80.
- the present invention is not limited thereto, and the implant may be configured by a plurality of bands 80, for example.
- the implant is not limited to the band 80, and other long objects having flexibility such as a thread and a string can be used.
- a thread or string is used as the implant and the cross-sectional shape is circular, the diameter is preferably about 0.2 to 5 mm.

- the configuration of each unit will be described.
- the shape of the vaginal insertion member 2 is not particularly limited as long as it is a longitudinal shape, but as shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, in the present embodiment, it is plate-shaped. Then, the total length L 1 of the vaginal insertion member 2 is not particularly limited, for example, preferably in the range of 50 ⁇ 100 mm, and more preferably 60 ⁇ 90 mm.
- the width w 1 of the vaginal insertion member 2 gradually decreases toward the distal direction.
- the width w 1 (average) is not particularly limited, but is preferably, for example, 10 to 35 mm, and more preferably 15 to 30 mm.
- the thickness t 1 of the vaginal insertion member 2 is also gradually reduced toward the distal end direction.
- the thickness t 1 (average) is not particularly limited, but is preferably 2 to 10 mm, for example, and more preferably 4 to 8 mm.
- the vaginal insertion member 2 has a window portion 24 constituted by a through-hole penetrating in the thickness direction.
- the window 24 is a portion where the curved inner surface (the other surface) 22 side can be visually recognized from the curved outer surface (one surface) 23 side of the vaginal insertion member 2, and treatments such as puncture and incision are also possible. Part.

Accordingly, when the vaginal insertion member 2 is inserted into the vaginal cavity 200 with the curved inner surface 22 facing the front side of the patient, the vaginal cavity 200 can be expanded and the surgical field can be directed to the front of the operator. It becomes easy to visually recognize through the window part 24, and can perform treatments such as puncture and incision.
- the curvature of the vaginal insertion member 2 is not particularly limited because a suitable range varies depending on the patient's body position. For example, the curvature radius is preferably 60 to 240 mm. If transvaginal treatment such as puncture or incision to the vagina wall is not frequently performed, the vagina insertion member 2 may not be curved because it is not necessary to direct the surgical field to the front of the operator. A linear shape may be sufficient.
- a urethral insertion member 3 is disposed on the curved inner side of the vaginal insertion member 2.
- the shape of the urethral insertion member 3 is not particularly limited as long as it is a longitudinal shape. However, in this embodiment, the urethra insertion member 3 has a rod shape and is curved in the same direction as the vaginal insertion member 2.

- the width w 2 is not particularly limited, but is preferably 2 to 7 mm, for example, and more preferably 3 to 6 mm.
- the thickness t 2 is not particularly limited, but is preferably 2 to 7 mm, for example, and more preferably 2 to 5 mm. If the width w 2 of the urethral insertion member 3 is larger than the thickness t 2 , the urethral cavity 100 is deformed into a shape in which the urethra wall is greatly extended in the width direction. There is an advantage that the urethral insertion member 3 and the urethral wall are hardly separated when being separated from the vaginal insertion member 2. Therefore, it is preferable that the width w 2 of the urethral insertion member 3 is larger than the thickness t 2 within a range where insertion into the urethral cavity 100 is not hindered.
- the tip 33 of the urethral insertion member 3 is rounded. Therefore, when inserting the urethral insertion member 3 into the urethral cavity 100, it is possible to reliably prevent the living tissue 300 and the like from being damaged at the tip 33, and to improve the safety for the patient.

Thereby, the distance D between the curved inner surface 22 of the vaginal insertion member 2 and the curved outer surface 34 of the urethral insertion member 3 is changed. Therefore, in the connecting means 4, the pair of small pieces 42 and the protrusions 43 also function as adjusting means for adjusting the distance D.
- the adjusting means appropriately adjusts the vaginal insertion member 2 and the urethral insertion member. The distance D between 3 can be adjusted to suit the patient.
