Abstract
A cannula to access the deep pelvic space of a patient from an incision near a patient's navel, wherein the deep pelvic space is generally inaccessible from the incision due to being obstructed by the patient's sacral promontory. The cannula is envisioned having an inner tube that slides within a rigid outer tube. The inner tube has a suction-irrigation tip located at the distal tube end and a flexible tube section interposed between the suction-irrigation tip and a rigid inner tube, which extends from the flexible tube section, outside of the proximal end of the rigid outer tube, where it is attached to a handle. The handle has an exit port centered in the handle (in communication with the suction-irrigation tip aperture), which is configured to suck fluid buildup in the deep pelvic space when the exit port is connected to a suction source via a suction tube.
