Abstract
A surgical kit includes a cannula assembly and a sheath. The cannula assembly includes a housing, an elongate shaft defining a lumen and extending from the housing, a fluid port adapted to be coupled to a fluid source, and an expandable body in fluid communication with the fluid port. The sheath is configured to be disposed over the expandable body of the cannula assembly to apply a compressive force to the expandable body. The sheath is transitionable between a contracted configuration and an expanded configuration.
