AnchorPort Single Incision Laparoscopy Kit

SurgiQuest has received FDA clearance for its 5mm AnchorPort Trocars for single incision laparoscopy. A common problem in laparoscopy is the slippage of trocars further into or out of the abdomen. The AnchorPort is a trocar that anchors itself in the abdominal wall by using an integrated elastomeric, stretchable cannula system that goes in elongated and, when the insertion gun is retracted, self adjusts to the abdominal wall thickness. The short trocar size made possible by this mechanism prevents the instruments from crisscrossing. The device can be inserted through a one inch skin incision through which three or more cannula ports can be inserted.
