Apparatus (20) and methods for performing surgery within a hollow body organ, are provided. A catheter (28) is provided having a longitudinal axis, and an end region carrying an end effector (25), the end region movable to a series of positions along the longitudinal axis, and with a selected orientation relative to the longitudinal axis. The catheter (28) includes elements (27) for stabilizing the end region of the apparatus within a hollow body organ, and for counteracting reaction forces developed during the actuation of the end effector (25). The end effector (25) provides for tissue cutting, and aspiration of severed tissue from a treatment site.
On décrit un appareil (20) et des procédés qui permettent d'effectuer un acte chirurgical à l'intérieur d'un organe corporel creux. On utilise un cathéter (28) qui comporte un axe longitudinal et une partie terminale dotée d'un effecteur terminal (25), ladite partie terminale étant mobile et pouvant adopter une série de positions le long de l'axe longitudinal ainsi qu'une orientation sélectionnée par rapport à l'axe longitudinal. Le cathéter (28) comprend des éléments (27) qui servent à stabiliser la partie terminale de l'appareil à l'intérieur d'un organe corporel creux et à contrebalancer les forces de réaction qui se créent pendant la mise en oeuvre de l'effecteur terminal (25). Ce dernier (25) coupe les tissus et aspire depuis un site de traitement les tissus coupés.
