摘要:
INTRODUCERS FOR INTRODUCING A SURGICAL CIRCULAR STAPLER INTO A PATIENT. VARIOUS EMBODIMENTS COMPRISE A HOLLOW FLEXIBLE SHEATH (110) THAT HAS A DISTAL END (114) AND AN OPEN PROXIMAL END (112) THAT IS SIZED TO RECEIVE A STAPLING HEAD PORTION OF THE CIRCULAR STAPLER THEREIN. A RADIALLY - OPENABLE BARREL MEMBER (152) IS ATTACHED TO A DISTAL END OF THE HOLLOW FLEXIBLE SHEATH TO DEFINE AN OPENING FOR RECEIVING THE STAPLING HEAD THEREIN. A RIGID CAP MEMBER (160) IS HINGABLY ATTACHED TO THE RADIALLY-OPENABLE BARREL MEMBER AND IS MOVABLE BETWEEN A CLOSED POSITION WHEREIN THE RIGID CAP MEMBER COVERS A DISTAL END OF THE OPENING IN THE BARREL MEMBER AND OPEN POSITION WHEREIN THE RIGID CAP MEMBER IS MOVABLE TO A POSITION WHEREIN THE DISTAL END OF THE OPENING IS EXPOSED. A RELEASABLE LATCH MEMBER (140) IS PROVIDED TO ENGAGE AND RELEASE OPPOSED ENDS OF THE RADIALLY-OPENABLE BARREL MEMBER.
