内窥镜器械的转向问题是微创手术的主要限制之一。一些制造商最近开发了复杂的可偏转器械，用于传统腹腔镜手术或遥控操作器。这些仪器的复杂性导致高成本，以及难以清洁和消毒。我们提出了一个新的概念，内窥镜仪器与多个自由度，基于一个可操纵的球形关节，可以由一个单一的控制轮。这一概念允许开发可拆卸和高压灭菌的5.5 mm手术工具。本文介绍了这种新仪器的主要特点。
The problem of steering endoscopic instruments is one of the main limitations of minimally invasive surgery. Some manufacturers have developed sophisticated deflectable instruments recently, either for conventional laparoscopic surgery or for telemanipulators. The complexity of these instruments results in high cost, and difficult cleaning and sterilisation. We present a new concept of endoscopic instrument with multiple degrees of freedom, based on a miniaturised spheric articulation that can be manipulated by a single control wheel. This concept has allowed the development of a 5.5 mm instrument that can be disassembled and autoclaved. The main features of this new instrument are presented in this article.
