Apparatus for sheathing an endoscopic tool (26) includes a sheathing assembly (34), which includes a sleeve dispenser (40) and a port adapter (46) for mating with a proximal port (32) of an endoscopic working channel (24) so as to permit the endoscopic tool (26) to be advanced through the sheathing assembly into the working channel. A flexible sleeve (50) in the sheathing assembly has a distal end (51), which is fixed to the sleeve dispenser, and a proximal end (53), which is adapted to engage the endoscopic tool as the endoscopic tool is retracted from the working channel, causing the sleeve to extend out of the dispenser in a proximal direction so as to sheath the endoscopic tool.

L'invention concerne un appareil permettant d'engainer un outil endoscopique (26). Ledit appareil comprend un ensemble d'engainement (34) pourvu d'un distributeur de manchon (40) et d'un adaptateur d'orifice (46) conçu pour s'accoupler à un orifice proximal (32) d'un canal opérateur endoscopique (24) de manière à permettre à l'outil endoscopique (26) d'être acheminé à travers l'ensemble d'engainement dans le canal opérateur. Un manchon flexible (50) dans l'ensemble d'engainement présente une extrémité distale (51) fixée sur le distributeur de manchon et une extrémité proximale (53) conçue pour rentrer en contact avec l'outil endoscopique, à mesure que ce dernier est retiré du canal opérateur, ce qui permet au manchon de s'étendre hors du distributeur dans une direction proximale, de manière à engainer l'outil endoscopique.
