Abstract
A surgical access device includes an obturator head, an elongated shaft extending distally from the obturator head along a longitudinal axis, and an obturator tip. The obturator tip includes a reusable portion and a replaceable tip. The reusable portion is attached to a distal portion of the elongated shaft such that the reusable portion is configured to be sterilized with the elongated shaft. The replaceable tip includes a tapered distal tip and a proximal coupling body. The tapered distal tip is configured to facilitate insertion of the surgical access device through a body wall of the patient. The proximal coupling body is configured to selectively couple with the reusable portion. The replaceable tip, in its entirety, is movable relative to the reusable portion along a mating path in order to couple the proximal coupling body with the reusable portion. The mating path extends laterally relative to the longitudinal axis.
