Abstract
A cannula to access the deep pelvic space of a patient from the patient's abdomen that is generally inaccessible from the incision due to being obstructed by the patient's sacral promontory is presented. The cannula can have 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 spring-loaded pre-bent 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 pre-bent tube section can comprise at least one arc or bend. A handle connected to the tubes has an exit port centered in the handle, 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.
