Patent number: 11957350Abstract: A device includes an elongated hollow member having an open distal end for receiving tissue therein and at least one exterior groove for loading at least one ligation band thereon. The device also includes a band deployment sleeve slidable over the exterior of the hollow member and configured to move from a radially expanded position to a radially contracted position in which, when the band deployment sleeve slides longitudinally over the hollow member, the distal portion engages the at least one ligation band. A closing sleeve slidable over the exterior of the band deployment sleeve is configured to constrain the distal portion from the radially expanded position into the radially contracted position. Retracting the closing sleeve proximally over the distal portion of the band deployment sleeve releases the distal portion from the radially contracted position into the radially expanded position.Type: GrantFiled: July 7, 2020Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: BACON SCIENTIFIC LIMITEDInventors: Abhishek Basu, Rohit Rohilla, Hitendra Purohit, Agrim Mishra, Nabarun Bhowmick, Nidhi Dhingra, Balaji Aswatha Narayana, Deepak Kumar Sharma
