Support or micromanipulator (100) for a surgical tool (20) comprising a complaint mechanism (1) providing direct support to the surgical tool (200), a positioning mechanism giving support to said complaint mechanism, and an attachment mechanism giving support to said positioning mechanism. The complaint mechanism (1) is made of a complaint material and allows three or four degrees of freedom to the movement of the tool (200). The positioning mechanism is located between the attachment mechanism and the complaint mechanism (1) and allows positioning of the same with six degrees of freedom. The attachment mechanism fastens the assembly to a surface of the surgical intervention region. The micromanipulator (100) is especially useful for practicing surgical interventions in the cochlea (performing cochlear implants, obtaining samples, etc), or other interventions for which high precision with the tool (200) is required.

L'invention porte sur un support ou un micromanipulateur (100) d'instrument de chirurgie (200) comprenant: un mécanisme flexible (1) servant de support direct à l'instrument; un mécanisme de positionnement servant de support au mécanisme flexible; et un mécanisme de fixation servant de support au mécanisme de positionnement. Le mécanisme flexible (1), fait d'un matériau souple, donne trois ou quatre degrés de liberté aux mouvements de l'instrument (200). Le mécanisme de positionnement, situé entre le mécanisme de fixation et le mécanisme flexible (1) permet lui de le positionner avec six degrés de liberté. Le mécanisme de fixation fixe l'ensemble à la surface de la zone d'intervention chirurgicale. Ce micromanipulateur (100) est particulièrement utile pour pratiquer des interventions chirurgicales dans la cochlée (implants cochléaires, prélèvement d'échantillons, etc.), ou d'autres interventions pour lesquelles la manipulation de l'instrument (200) requiert une grande précision.
