An anoscope for use with a medical instrument insertable within the interior of the anoscope. The anoscope comprises a tubular member having a longitudinal axis with a proximal end and a distal end. The distal end is insertable into the rectum of a patient while the proximal end remains outside the body. A first longitudinal slot extends from the distal end toward the proximal end, and a second longitudinal slot extends from the proximal end toward the distal end. The first and second longitudinal slots are separated by about 180° on the surface of the tubular member. The first longitudinal slot is adapted to permit access to a site to be treated within the rectum and the second longitudinal slot is adapted to accommodate pivoting of the medical instrument at an angle to the longitudinal axis of the tubular member to improve access to the site to be treated.

La présente invention concerne un anuscope à l'intérieur duquel il est possible d'insérer un instrument médical. L'anuscope comprend un élément tubulaire longitudinal présentant une extrémité proximale et une extrémité distale. L'extrémité distale s'insère dans le rectum du patient, et l'extrémité proximale demeure à l'extérieur du corps. Une première fente longitudinale s'étend de l'extrémité distale vers l'extrémité proximale, et une seconde fente longitudinale s'étend de l'extrémité proximale vers l'extrémité distale. La première et la seconde fente longitudinale sont séparées d'environ 180° à la surface de l'élément tubulaire. La première fente longitudinale permet d'accéder à la région du rectum devant être traitée, et la seconde permet de faire pivoter l'instrument médical par rapport à l'axe longitudinal de l'élément tubulaire pour améliorer l'accès à la région devant être traitée.
