Abstract: A lighting device for attachment to a handheld electrosurgical instrument is disclosed, which includes an elongated housing having opposed proximal and distal end portions and defining an interior chamber containing a battery powered light assembly for illuminating a surgical site, the housing having at least one smoke evacuation passage that extends from an inlet located adjacent to or near the distal end portion of the housing to an outlet located adjacent to or near the proximal end portion of the housing for removing smoke generated at the surgical site.

Abstract: A cordless light attachment for a tool includes a housing that has a proximal end and a distal end, and an interior cavity that extends from the proximal end to the distal end, forming an opening extending through the housing from the proximal end to the distal end. The device receives therein a tool and removably attaches to the tool. The device has at least one light source powered by a cordless power source arranged on or within the housing.

Abstract: Lighting devices are disclosed for use with handheld surgical instruments, along with holsters for supporting surgical instruments with lighting devices thereon and kits containing surgical instruments and lighting devices.

Abstract: A cordless, battery powered lighting device is disclosed which is configured to be removably installed on a distal end portion of a handheld electrosurgical instrument, and once the lighting device is installed on the distal end portion of the instrument, light automatically projects from the lighting device along the longitudinal axis of the surgical instrument.

Abstract: An adapter assembly is disclosed for attaching a lighting device to a handheld surgical instrument, which includes a first body portion configured to engage a distal end portion of the surgical instrument at a position along a central axis thereof, and a second body portion configured to support a lighting device adjacent the distal end portion of the surgical instrument, such that an illumination axis of the lighting device angularly intersects the central axis of the surgical instrument.
