  • transsphenoid sinus pituitary tumor excision (TSS; Trans-Sphenoidal Surgery) is often performed.
  • TSS is generally performed in the following procedure. First, the surgeon advances along the patient's nasal septum while peeling the nasal mucosa, and opens the sphenoid bone and opens the dura mater to reach the pituitary gland. Next, the pituitary tumor is removed. Finally, the dura is sutured to rebuild the sphenoid bone and nasal mucosa.
  • dura stitching is performed by passing a thread through each side of the incised dura mater, closing the dura while pulling both ends of the thread, and then fixing and making knots (knots). It was.

First, after passing a suture needle with a suture through one dura mater from the proximal side to the distal side of the dura mater, that is, from the nasal cavity side to the pituitary side, A suture needle with a suture is passed from the distal side to the proximal side, that is, from the pituitary side to the nasal cavity side. At this time, the suture enters the pituitary side from the nasal cavity side and comes out again to the nasal cavity side.

Therefore, the surgeon must perform a suturing operation under a microscope or an endoscopic image, and there is a problem that the operation takes a long time. For this reason, a suturing device that can pass sutures in two directions from the distal side to the proximal side of the dura mater and from the proximal side to the distal side has been proposed.
