An apparatus and method for placing a suture by manipulating a cannula and attached needle. The cannula may be usable in a minimally invasive surgical procedure, and the needle may be selectively attached to and/or separated from the cannula. The cannula and needle may include complementary locking members that engage with each other and allow the needle to be used to place a suture by manipulation of the cannula.

L'invention concerne un dispositif et un procédé permettant de mettre en place une suture par la manipulation d'une canule et d'une aiguille associée. La canule s'utilise dans une procédure chirurgicale peu vulnérante, et l'aiguille est fixée sélectivement à la canule et/ou détachée de celle-ci. La canule et l'aiguille comprennent des éléments de blocage complémentaires qui entrent en contact mutuel et permettent d'utiliser l'aiguille pour mettre en place une suture, par une manipulation de la canule.
