  • DEVICE FOR SIMULATING AN ENDOSCOPIC OPERATION VIA NATURAL ORIFICE
    Publication number: 20180366034
    Abstract: A device for simulating an endoscopic operation via natural orifice, including a physical model of a biological organ including main and inlet modules detachable from each other. The main module may define a main body of the organ with a cavity and the inlet module may define an inlet opening to the cavity of the main module corresponding to the inlet of the biological organ. The cavity of the main module is accessible through the inlet module by an endoscopic tool to actuate in the cavity of the main module. The main module may be configured in such a way that, in use, one or more simulation modules are attachable with the main module to simulate one or more events representative of the actuation of the endoscopic tool in the cavity of the main module.

  • Robotic system for laparoscopic surgery
    Patent number: 9119653
    Abstract: It comprises a supporting structure in which at least one arm is slidably attached. Each arm comprises first and second members hinged to each other. The first member is rotatably hinged to the supporting structure and it can be rotated about a longitudinal axis and the second member may receive a joint having at least two degrees of freedom for attaching a tool. The longitudinal axis of the first member is substantially perpendicular to an axis joining the first member and the second member to each other. A simplified architecture is obtained allowing for accurate and efficient spatial movement of the tool holding arm.
