Available for licensing, manufacturing
and commercial development is a
laparoscopic surgical device. This
device is an obturator with a cylindrical
shape (diameter about 11mm, length
about 4.5 inches) with hollow inflow
and outflow channels running through
the obturator to allow for the transfer of
fluids or gas into the interior of the
laparoscopic working space in a closedcircuit fashion. At the top and bottom
ends of the obturator, flexible hollow
tubings are coupled to the end holes of
the obturator’s hollow channels. In
working position, the obturator traverses
the inner space of the previously placed
laparoscopic port, with the outside
diameter of the obturator, creating an
airtight seal with the port’s diaphragm
seal. The flexible tubings that continue
from the bottom/intracorporeal end of
the obturator would rest inside the
operative working space, for connection
to any number of end-pieces that would
complete the intracorporeal closedcircuit flow path. Applications of this
device include transmission of
chemotherapeutics, thermoregulated
fluids for organ cooling/warming, and
possibly even gas media. This obturator
can also be designed to include a
working channel among its hollow
channels, so that a 5 mm laparoscopic
instrument can be used through the
obturator, at the same time as it is
