EVOSHIELD TROCAR

The benefits of using shielded trocars, particularly for the “blind” primary port, are well established amongst the laparoscopic surgical community.

 


INQUIRE

OVERVIEW

The EVOSHIELD Dilating Tip Auto Shield Trocar set comprises an obturator with sharp flat bilateral linear blade and retractable safety shield, the EVOSEAL universal seal and EVOSLEEVE cannula. Together this creates a trocar that, due to the limited exposure of the bilateral blades (1-2mm) and dilating feature of the obturator (creates a wound puncture of 3-6mm), provides both protection to internal viscera from potential injury after traditional insertion technique, and reduction of port size incision and requirement for fascial closure, reducing potential for port site hernia.
