APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR TISSUE REDUCTION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240041490 titled 'APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR TISSUE REDUCTION

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an apparatus and methods for tissue reduction. One embodiment of the device includes an external clamping mechanism with two distally extending members that have a gentle distal end. These members create a confined region between them, which is designed to hold a tissue region. The device also includes an elongate coring needle with a lumen, attached to a handle. The distal end of the needle has a cutting mechanism. The coring needle can be moved adjacent to or relative to the clamping mechanism.

  • The invention is a tissue resection device that includes an external clamping mechanism and an elongate coring needle.
  • The clamping mechanism has two distally extending members with atraumatic distal ends, creating a confined region for holding tissue.
  • The coring needle has a lumen and a cutting mechanism at its distal end.
  • The coring needle can be translated adjacent to or relative to the clamping mechanism.
  • The device allows for tissue reduction by clamping and cutting the tissue region.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Tissue reduction procedures in various medical fields, such as general surgery, plastic surgery, and gynecology.
  • Minimally invasive procedures for tissue removal or reduction.
  • Biopsy procedures where tissue samples need to be obtained.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Provides a less invasive and more controlled method for tissue reduction compared to traditional surgical techniques.
  • Minimizes trauma to surrounding tissues during tissue resection procedures.
  • Allows for precise and targeted tissue removal or reduction.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Minimizes patient discomfort and recovery time due to its minimally invasive nature.
  • Provides surgeons with better control and visibility during tissue reduction procedures.
  • Reduces the risk of complications and damage to surrounding tissues.
  • Enables more precise and accurate tissue sampling in biopsy procedures.


Original Abstract Submitted

apparatus and methods for tissue reduction are described where one embodiment of the tissue resection device may generally comprise an external clamping mechanism having at least two distally extending members shaped with an atraumatic distal end and defining a confined region between the distally extending members sized to receive a tissue region therebetween. additionally, an elongate coring needle defining a lumen and having a proximal end attached to a handle and a distal end which defines a cutting mechanism may also be included, wherein the coring needle is translatable adjacent and/or relative to the external or internal clamping mechanism defined by the confined region.
