Embodiment Construction

[0076] The teachings provided herein generally aim to provide improved methods and devices for the endoscopic surgical treatment of gastrointestinal disorders in a stable and dynamic surgical environment and in a minimally invasive manner. The system includes, for example, an endoscopic surgical assembly formed from the systems disclosed herein. The surgical assembly can have a reversibly expandable retractor that expands to provide a stable surgical environment within the subject. In some embodiments, the dilation may be asymmetric about the stabilizer subsystem to maximize the space for tools and endoscopes that are each independently manipulated to visualize the target tissue from outside the body and treat the target tissue in a minimally invasive manner. target organization. The teachings of the embodiments herein, among other improvements, can provide increased distances between tool ports and target tissue to improve the independent maneuverability and triangulation of...

Abstract

Improved methods and devices for performing an endoscopic surgery are provided. Systems are taught for operatively treating gastrointestinal disorders endoscopically in a stable, yet dynamic operative environment, and in a minimally-invasive manner. Such systems include, for example, an endoscopic surgical suite. The surgical suite can have a reversibly-expandable retractor that expands to provide a stable, operative environment within a subject. The expansion can be asymmetric around a stabilizer subsystem to maximize space for a tool and an endoscope to each be maneuvered independently to visualize a target tissue and treat the target tissue from outside the patient in a minimally invasive manner.

Description

[0001] background [0002] This application is a continuation-in-part of Application Serial No. 12 / 970,604, filed December 16, 2010, claiming priority to provisional application 61 / 287,077, filed December 16, 2009, and filed on June 22, 2012 A continuation-in-part of application filed with Serial No. 13 / 531,477. The entire content of each of these applications is incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0003] The teachings provided herein generally aim to provide improved methods and devices for endoscopic surgical treatment of gastrointestinal disorders in a stable and dynamic surgical (operating) environment and in a minimally invasive manner. Background technique [0004] Endoscopic procedures (procedures) involving the gastrointestinal system have advantages over traditional surgery in that they are less invasive and can provide visualization. These processes continue to evolve to solve problems and provide new treatments recognized by those skilled in the ...
