A treatment instrument for endoscope that is suitable for cutting submucosal layer in endoscopic submucosal dissection is provided, and the treatment instrument for endoscope has a treatment section at a distal end of an insertion section which is inserted in a body. The treatment section includes a conductor that is connected to a high-frequency source, and is configured to have a sandwich structure in which the conductor is sandwiched between a non-conductor on the distal end side thereof and a non-conductor on a proximal end side thereof. The conductor is formed to be exposed in a strip-shape at a side surface of the treatment section, and a lateral movement of the treatment section causes a cutting of a submucosal layer with the conductor to be performed.

In an endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), electrodes inserted via an endoscope are used to cut and/or coagulate the tissue. For the operation to succeed, it is essential to determine the absolute position of the electrodes within the tissue. However, poor viewing conditions and technical limitations make the correct determination of the position extremely difficult. The present invention therefore proposes to make available an electrosurgical instrument which comprises a protective tube, to be inserted into a working channel of an endoscope, and an electrode. A control element is used to move this electrode in a distal direction and a proximal direction inside the protective tube, wherein the electrode, by being moved in the distal direction, can be brought into a deployed position in which the electrode at least partially protrudes from a distal end of the protective tube. The distal end of the protective tube has a closure element with an opening for the passage of the electrode, wherein the opening of the closure element, for guiding and/or cleaning the electrode, has a maximum internal diameter smaller than the internal diameter of the protective tube.

The invention belongs to the field of high polymer materials and medical equipment, and particularly relates to a formula and a preparation technology of a submucosal injection sodium hyaluronate solution for an endoscope. According to the formula of the sodium hyaluronate solution, the sodium hyaluronate solution is prepared from sodium hyaluronate, sodium chloride, sodium hydrogen phosphate, sodium dihydrogen phosphate, methylene blue and water for injection. The preparation technology of the sodium hyaluronate solution includes the steps that firstly, sodium chloride is stirred and dissolved in a burdening tank, then sodium hyaluronate is added, temperature is raised to 40 DEG C, and stirring is performed; sodium hydrogen phosphate and sodium dihydrogen phosphate are sequentially added in, and stirring continues; secondly, the pH value of material liquid is measured; the pH value of the material liquid is adjusted to reach 7.0-8.0; thirdly, methylene blue is added and stirred, water is supplemented, and volume is metered; fourthly, filtering is performed through a microfiltration membrane ; fifthly, the mixture is encapsulated in an ampoule or a glass bottle and sterilized with steam at the temperature of 121 DEG C for 15 min, and the submucosal injection sodium hyaluronate solution is obtained. The sodium hyaluronate solution is used for endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) and is injected below a gastrointestinal mucous membrane, lesions can be fully swelled, a submucosal liquid cushion is formed, a submucosa and a muscular layer can be effectively separated, and bleeding, perforation and other complications can be reduced while electroexcision is facilitated.
