Abstract: A continuous strip of staples for use with a surgical stapling device includes an elongated stock of corrugated paper defining a plurality of channels therein. An inner facing side of each channel is configured to support a row of staples thereon and extending therealong and is configured to be slidingly received in a corresponding plurality of slots defined within a cartridge assembly of a stapling device for loading the staples therein. A plurality of indexing apertures is defined in the elongated stock and extends therealong. The plurality of indexing apertures is adapted to engage a staple deformation element of the cartridge assembly during retraction thereof to automatically reload one or more new rows of staples after actuation of the stapling device.

Abstract: A surgical kit includes a cannula assembly and a camera assembly. The cannula assembly includes a cannula housing and a cannula member extending from the cannula housing. The cannula member defines a channel therethrough. The camera assembly includes an insertion member including an elongate shaft including a supporting member extending proximally from a distal end portion of the elongate shaft, and a camera detachably supported on a proximal end portion of the supporting member of the insertion member. The camera is configured to be coupled to an outer surface of the cannula. The camera and the insertion member are dimensioned to be received through the channel of the cannula member.
