PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a medical needle allowing an operator to perform LPEC (Laparoscopic Percutaneous Extraperitoneal Closure) method, the procedure of which is simplified, by further facilitating puncture, needle handling, and perforation when percutaneously guiding a suture along the hernia orifice compared with a suture guide introducer of the conventional technique.SOLUTION: A medical needle comprises: a loop member 10 including a loop needle 30 in which a tip end thereof has a loop structure, and a grip part having an outside diameter larger than the outside diameter of the loop needle； a threader member including a tubular threader needle, and a tubular grip part having an outside diameter larger than the outside diameter of the threader needle and allowing insertion of the loop member from a tail end； and a puncture member including a tubular puncture needle in which a tip end thereof has a sharp angle structure, and a tubular grip part having an outside diameter larger than the outside diameter of the puncture needle and allowing the insertion of the threader member 20 from the tail end.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1【課題】従来技術の縫合糸誘導針に比べて、経皮下でヘルニア門に沿って縫合糸を誘導する際の穿刺、運針及び穿破が容易であることから、手技がより簡易化されたＬＰＥＣ法を実施し得る医療用針を提供する。【解決手段】先端部がループ状構造であるループ針３０及び外径が該ループ針の外径よりも大きい把持部を備えたループ部材１０と、管状の糸通し針及び外径が該糸通し針の外径よりも大きい管状の把持部を備え、かつ、末端から該ループ部材を挿通可能である糸通し部材と、先端部が鋭角構造である管状の穿刺針及び外径が該穿刺針の外径よりも大きい管状の把持部を備え、かつ、末端から該糸通し部材２０を挿通可能である穿刺部材とからなる医療用針により解決される。【選択図】図１
