The invention is a number of minimally invasive, miniature surgical instruments (10) that can be mounted directly on a surgeon's fingertips in a way that the surgeon can insert his or her hand into a patient through a minimal incision to perform surgical procedures, and also to use his or her fingers to manipulate tissues. The invention enables the surgeon to perform the procedures with all the benefits of minimally invasive surgery, but with much greater tactile sense, control, and ease of manipulation, than enabled by known minimally invasive surgical instruments.
Cette invention concerne plusieurs instruments chirurgicaux (10) minimalement invasifs qui peuvent être montés directement sur l'extrémité des doigts d'un chirurgien de telle sorte que ce dernier peut introduire sa main dans le corps d'un patient à travers une incision minimale pour procéder à des interventions chirurgicales ou bien utiliser ses doigts pour manipuler des tissus. Cette invention permet au chirurgien de pratiquer des interventions en profitant de tous les avantages de la chirurgie minimalement invasive mais avec un meilleur sens du toucher, un contrôle accru et une plus grande facilité d'utilisation qu'avec les instruments chirurgicaux minimalement invasifs connus.
