TROCAR Article NES 02-245-17

Description

A Trocar is a surgical instrument designed for draining fluids, inserting cannulas, or gaining access to body cavities during medical and surgical procedures. Traditionally consisting of a sharp-pointed obturator, a cannula (tube), and a seal, trocars are widely used in general surgery, abdominal procedures, gynecology, and laparoscopic interventions.

Made from premium stainless steel, surgical trocars are durable, corrosion-resistant, and suitable for repeated sterilization. Modern variations include both reusable and disposable models, designed to minimize trauma while providing reliable access.

Trocars are available in various specialized forms such as DeBakey, Nelson, Ochsner, Lichtwitz, Krause, Cooley, Fleurant, Douglas, and more, each tailored to specific surgical applications. Their precision design ensures safety, efficiency, and effectiveness in both open and minimally invasive procedures.
