Proctoscope with Half Cut

Self-illuminating plastic proctoscope: For a non-excisional, cost-effective surgical procedure for advanced hemorrhoids

1. Hemorrhoids (piles) are a common medical condition affecting 4.4% to 36.4% of the population.
2. Existing surgical procedures for piles include Haemorrhoidectomy & suture / stapled Haemorrhoidopexy which are known to have various postoperative complications including pain and risk of collateral formation.
3. Current operating proctoscopes used for the surgical procedures have sharp edges which makes changing orientation in-situ of the same difficult and tiresome for the surgeon. 

Unique features of  Proctoscope with Half Cut:

1. Window without any edges in the outer tube to facilitate the surgical procedure.
2. Self-illuminating proctoscope with an ergonomic design provides a clear field of view for the surgeon without obstructing the operating area.
3. Outer tube molded with a blind, smooth conical shape at one end for easy introduction into the anal canal with an obturator.
4. The proctoscope retracts the anus and rectum and compresses hemorrhoidal engorgement up to the dentate line and reduces bleeding.

Advantages:

1. No reinsertion of the proctoscope required for changing orientation
2. Proctoscope can be rotated in-situ without injury to the anal canal mucosa
3. Makes the surgical procedure relatively direct, simple, and non-excisional
4. Minimal postoperative pain after the procedure
5. Shorter stay in the hospital for the patient
