TroClose1200
Trocar With Built-In Sutures for
Rapid Closure of
Abdominal Wall
Gordian Surgical, an Israeli company, won the European CE mark for its
TroClose1200 laparoscopy
Trocar that has a
Built-In suturing system to close the
Abdominal Wall once you’re done
With the procedure. The
Sutures are placed internally around the puncture once the
Trocar is positioned and are brought together by simply pulling on the lines once the laparoscopic instruments are *******.
The company hopes the device will save surgeons time over manual suturing or introducing additional devices just to close the incision. Moreover, it believes that a good deal of ports will be able to be closed
With its system that are currently too difficult for manual methods.
Gordian is **w running clinical trials to prove its tech**logy in practice which has already been used in 34 procedures, such as*hysterectomy, cholecystectomy, hernia repair, and sleeve gastrectomy and the company hopes to add 50 more in a trial that should wrap up later this year.
Here’s a video from the company that shows the functionality of the TroClose1200:
