Abstract

Abstract Translated from English Système d'agrafage chirurgical, dispositif et agrafe, où une agrafe élastique (21) possédant une configuration fermée à l'état de repos, est dilatée de manière à assumer une forme de croissant ouvert, et est laissée revenir à sa configuration fermée tout en perçant et tirant ensemble les bords adjacents (33A) d'une incision ou blessure ouverte. Le dispositif d'agrafage (10) contient une pluralité d'agrafes (21) et comprend des éléments en saillie (28, 29, 30) qui engagent et retiennent chaque agrafe dans le dispositif jusqu'à ce que sa fermeture dans le tissu soit complète et que l'on souhaite sa séparation du dispositif. Un autre mécanisme (2, 3, 4 et 5) est prévu pour commander la fermeture de l'agrafe et facultativement pour rouvrir une agrafe fermée ou partiellement fermée. Surgical stapling system, device, and staple, where an elastic staple (21) having a closed configuration in the idle state, is expanded to assume an open crescent shape, and is allowed to return to its closed configuration while piercing and pulling together the adjacent edges (33A) of an open incision or wound. The stapling device (10) contains a plurality of staples (21) and includes projecting elements (28, 29, 30) which engage and retain each staple in the device until its closure in the fabric is complete and that one wishes its separation from the device. Another mechanism (2, 3, 4 and 5) is provided for controlling the closure of the clip and optionally for reopening a closed or partially closed clip.
