Inflatable procteurynter for treatment of anal sphincter pathologies

摘要

The invention is of valid use in the field of the treatment of anal sphincter pathologies, especially for the treatment of fissures and sphincter hypertonia. The procteurynter in question consists of a bag (1) made of plastic material and a sheath (2) that is internally crossed by two tubes: one tube (3) for the flow of water or air and a second tube (4) for the eventual introduction of an ultrasonoscope. Once the bag (1) is filled with water or air through the holes (2.6) made in the wall (2.5) of the sheath (2), it takes on an hourglass shape: two cones with a central neck or constriction.PPThe distal part of the sheath (2) has a plug (2.3) inside it to completely occlude the internal lumen whereas the inner portion of proximal part of the sheath (2) has a disk (2.4) whose central hole is crossed by a tube (4); one of the ends of tube (3) is lodged in a second hole that lies acentrically on the said disk (2.4).
