About the Laparoscopic Handpieces
The Laparoscopic handpiece is a variant of the standard straight 24 kHz
CUSA Selector handpiece in which the front of the handpiece is extended to
facilitate its use in laparoscopic surgery. This handpiece has an external
diameter along its working length of 10 mm. It can be used with both reusable
and disposable 10/10.5 mm trocar introducers.
The Laparoscopic handpiece has been designed for the dissection and
selective removal of unwanted tissue in gastrointestinal surgery. When used
in a gentle but continuously moving action, it is capable of removing cellular
tissue and fat while sparing fibrous structures such as nerves, blood vessels
and membranes. Note that the Laparoscopic handpiece is fitted with a clamp
at the rear end through which the aspiration/irrigation tube should be passed.
The laparoscopic handpiece is not intended for liposuction procedures.
