摘要:
A system for illuminating a surgical site includes a surgical tool having a tubular shaped body with an outer wall that extends from a proximal end to a distal end of the tubular shaped body. An opening extends through the outer wall. The system includes an illumination device coupled with the surgical tool for providing light inside the tubular shaped body. The illumination device includes a proximal end having a housing with a power source, a distal end including a distal tip, an LED disposed inside the distal tip, and a flexible power line extending between the housing and the distal tip for interconnecting the LED with the power source. The distal tip is inserted into the opening extending through the outer wall of the tubular shaped body for providing light inside the tubular shaped body.
