F2>F3
また、本発明の他の態様に係る外套管は、体壁を貫通して体腔内に挿入される外套管本体と、外套管本体の内部に設けられ、体腔内を観察する内視鏡を進退自在に挿通可能な内視鏡挿通路と、外套管本体の内部に設けられ、体腔内の患部を検査又は処置する処置具を進退自在に挿通可能な処置具挿通路と、外套管本体の内部において進退自在に構成され、内視鏡挿通路に挿通された内視鏡に連結される内視鏡連結部と、処置具挿通路に挿通された処置具に連結される処置具連結部とを有し、内視鏡及び処置具のいずれか一方の進退移動に対して他方が連動しない不感帯領域と、内視鏡及び処置具のいずれか一方の進退移動に対して他方が連動する感帯領域とを有する連動部材と、を備え、連動部材は、外套管本体に対する内視鏡及び処置具の位置関係を変えることなく、処置具を軸周りに回転可能に構成する。
図1は、本発明に係る内視鏡下外科手術装置の概略構成図である。図1に示すように内視鏡下外科手術装置10は、患者の体腔内を観察する内視鏡100と、患者の体腔内の患部を検査又は処置するための処置具200と、内視鏡100及び処置具200を体腔内に案内する外套管300(ガイド部材)と、を備える。
内視鏡100は、例えば腹腔鏡などの硬性内視鏡であり、体腔内に挿入される細長い挿入部(以下、「内視鏡挿入部」という。)102と、内視鏡挿入部102の基端側に連設される操作部104とを備える。操作部104には、ユニバーサルケーブル106が接続され、このユニバーサルケーブル106の先端部にプロセッサ装置108と光源装置110の各々がコネクタ(不図示)を介して着脱自在に接続される。また、プロセッサ装置108は、ケーブルを介してモニタ112に接続される。
図1に示すように、処置具200は、例えば鉗子からなり、体腔内に挿入される細長い挿入部(以下、「処置具挿入部」という。)202と、処置具挿入部202の基端側に設けられ、術者に把持される操作部204と、処置具挿入部202の先端側に設けられ、操作部204の操作によって動作可能な処置部206と、を備える。
図3は、外套管300を後左上方向から示した外観斜視図である。
外套管300の具体的構成について説明する。図4は、外套管300の内部構造を示した断面図(図3の4-4矢視断面図)であり、基準軸300aを含み、かつ、上下方向に直交する平面で切断した断面を示す。本明細書において、単に断面図という場合には図4と同一平面により切断した断面図を示すものとする。
外套管本体320は、硬質樹脂や金属等により基準軸300aを中心軸とする長細い円筒状に形成されており、外周を囲む外壁322と、外套管本体320の基端から先端まで貫通する管腔324とを有する。
貫通孔342は、その中心軸が内視鏡挿通軸306aと同軸上に配置され、内視鏡挿通路306の一部を形成する。基端面302における貫通孔342の開口は、上述の内視鏡挿入口310に相当する。
また、図5は、基準軸300aを含み、かつ、図4の紙面に直交する平面で外套管300を切断したときの基端キャップ340周辺の断面図である。同図に示すように基端キャップ340は、基端面302から外套管本体320の管腔324まで貫通する貫通孔350を有する。
ここで、一本の医療器具を体腔内に案内する外套管においては、送気コネクタは、外套管の基端面ではなく、側面に設けられるのが一般的である。
次に、スライダ400について説明する。
スライダ400の内部構造について説明する。
内視鏡連結部420は、スライダ本体402の左側に設けられており、外套管本体320の管腔324内において内視鏡挿通路306となる空間を確保するとともに図6のようにして内視鏡挿入部102が挿通される貫通孔424と、内視鏡挿通路306に挿通された内視鏡挿入部102の外周面(側面)に圧接する圧接部材426とを備える。
処置具連結部422は、図10に示すように、スライダ本体402の右側に設けられており、処置具挿入部202に連結されるスリーブ440(スリーブ部材)と、スリーブ440を処置具挿通軸308a方向(前後方向)に進退移動可能にガイドするガイド部460とを備える。
以上のように構成されたスライダ400によれば、外套管300の内視鏡挿通路306に挿通された内視鏡挿入部102とスライダ本体402が連結し、外套管300の処置具挿通路308に挿通された処置具挿入部202とスリーブ440とが連結する。
次に、スライダ400の動作条件について説明する。ここでは、スライダ400の動作に関連する各部材に作用する力を以下のように定義する。
処置具挿入部202が進退操作された際(大幅に進退操作された際)に、内視鏡挿入部102と処置具挿入部202とをスライダ400を介して一体的に進退移動させる条件として、固定力F1、F2、摩擦力F3は、次の条件(1)、(2)を満たす。
F2>F3 ・・・(2)
これによって、処置具挿入部202が進退操作された際に、図12又は図13のようにスリーブ440がスライダ本体402に対する移動可能範囲の後端又は前端に到達すると、スリーブ440はスライダ本体402及び内視鏡挿入部102を介して弁部材346の摩擦力F3を受ける。このとき、摩擦力F3よりも大きな固定力F1により内視鏡挿入部102とスライダ本体402とが連結され、かつ、摩擦力F3よりも大きな固定力F2により処置具挿入部202とスリーブ440とが連結されているため、処置具挿入部202の進退移動と連動してスライダ本体402が進退移動し、スライダ本体402の進退移動と連動して内視鏡挿入部102が進退移動する。
同様に、内視鏡挿入部102が進退操作された際に、内視鏡挿入部102と処置具挿入部202とをスライダ400を介して一体的に進退移動させるために、固定力F1、F2、摩擦力F4とは、次の条件(4)、(5)を満たす。
F2>F4 ・・・(5)
また、内視鏡挿入部102が進退操作された際に、これと連動させてスライダ本体402を外套管本体320に対して進退移動させるための条件として、固定力F1と、摩擦力F6とは、次の条件(6)を満たす。
(b)処置具の進退移動幅が小さい場合に内視鏡と処置具を連動させない条件について
処置具挿入部202が小幅に進退操作された際に、図11のように内視鏡挿入部102を進退移動させずに処置具挿入部202のみを進退移動させるための条件として、摩擦力F3、F5、F6は、次の条件(7)を満たす。
これにより、図11で示したように処置具挿入部202の移動幅が小さいときは内視鏡挿入部102は移動せず、処置具挿入部202の進退移動幅が大きいときは内視鏡挿入部102が移動する。すなわち、処置具挿入部202の進退移動幅が小さい場合は、スリーブ440がスライダ本体402内のみで進退移動し、スライダ本体402自体は外套管本体320に対して移動しないので内視鏡挿入部102が軸方向(前後方向)に進退移動しない。
内視鏡100と処置具200とを把持しながら処置具挿入部202の長さ調整を行えるようにするための条件として、固定力F1、F2は、次の条件(8)を満たすことが好ましい。
これにより、外套管本体320を持って処置具挿入部202を進退移動した場合、又は、内視鏡挿入部102を持って処置具挿入部202を進退移動した場合であっても、スライダ本体402に対する内視鏡挿入部102の係合位置を変えることなく、スライダ本体402に対する処置具挿入部202の係合位置を変えることができる。
一方、内視鏡挿入部102を持って処置具挿入部202を進退移動することによって処置具挿入部202の長さ調整を行う場合、F4<F3ならば上記と同様の摩擦力が発生するので、式(9)を満足することが望ましく、F3<F4ならば、発生する摩擦力はスリーブ440と処置具挿入部202との間と、弁部材346と内視鏡挿入部102との間であるので、処置具挿入部202の進退操作に要する操作力はF2+F3である。したがって、このような調整操作を術者がストレスを感じることなく行えるようにする場合には、固定力F2と、摩擦力F3とが、次の条件(10)を満たすことが望ましい。
これらの条件(9)と条件(10)のうち、両方の条件を満たすようにした場合に限らず、いずれか一方のみの条件を満たすようにした場合であっても効果的である。
このような調整操作を術者がストレスを感じることなく行えるようにする場合には、固定力F1と、摩擦力F3もしくはF4とが、次の条件(12)もしくは(13)を満たすことが望ましい。
F1+F3<10N(Nはニュートン) ・・・(13)
(d)良好な操作性を確保するための条件について
術者がストレスを感じることなく処置具挿入部202の進退操作を行うことができる条件として、摩擦力F3、F4、F6は、次の条件(14)を満たすことが好ましい。
このように、術者が処置具挿入部202を大幅に進退操作する際に必要な操作力(F3+F4+F6)を設定しておくことにより、術者がストレスを感じることなく良好な操作性を確保することができる。
処置具挿入部202の進退操作によって外套管300(外套管本体320)が体壁に対してずれないようにするための条件として、外套管300の体壁に対する前後方向(軸方向)の固定力をFtとすると、固定力Ftと、摩擦力F3、F4とは、次の条件(15)を満たす。
これによって、処置具挿入部202が進退操作されても、体壁に刺入された外套管300(外套管本体320)はずれることなく安定した状態で固定されているので、良好な操作性を確保することが可能となる。
以上の外套管300において、外套管本体320に対してスライダ400を前後方向のみに進退移動できるようにしたスライダ400の支持機構は、上記形態に限らない。
次に、外套管300を体壁に刺入する際に外套管300に装着して使用する内針500について説明する。
以上のごとく構成された内針500によれば、外套管300の内視鏡挿入口310と処置具挿入口314の各々から内視鏡挿通路306と処置具挿通路308に内針500の軸部502、504の各々を挿入していくと、図20のように内針500の頭部510が、外套管300の基端キャップ340に近づいていく。
次に、本実施形態の内視鏡下外科手術装置10を用いた操作方法の一例について説明する。
