Abstract:
The Trocar structure for abdominal surgery comprises a cannula having at one end a guide element provided with a valve for maintaining the positive intracavitary pressure and a shaft having, at one end a head and at the opposite end a tip, advantageously the valve is made of a single piece of silicone and has first elastically deformable sealing means for maintaining the positive intracavitary pressure during the passage of the shaft and of a surgical instrument through the cannula and second elastically deformable sealing means engaging the guide element.

Claim (Index 1):
A Trocar structure for abdominal surgery comprising a cannula ( 2 ) having at one end a guide element ( 3 ) provided with a valve ( 5 ) for maintaining positive intracavitary pressure and a shaft ( 4 ) having at one end a head ( 6 ) and at the opposite end a tip ( 7 ), said valve being made of a single piece of silicon and has first elastically deformable sealing means ( 8 ) for maintaining said positive intracavitary pressure during the passage of said shaft ( 4 ) and a surgical instrument through said cannula and second sealing means ( 8 ), elastically deformable, with said guide element, characterized in that said first sealing means comprise central slits ( 10 ) oriented concentrically on a flat wall ( 11 ) of said disposable valve, said slits forming the lobes ( 12 ) adapted to bend inside or outside said wall in a uniform manner to form on the surface of said shaft ( 4 ) and of said surgical instrument a first collar ( 14 ) providing a continuous annular seal and in that said second sealing means ( 9 ) comprise a second collar ( 15 ) engaging elastically an annular seat of said guide element.
