Abstract
Systems and methods are configured for precise placement of surgical stents. A customized endoscopic system has a stent positioned between an inner cannula and the outer sleeve. The inner cannula has an integrated camera and illumination on its distal tip. The operator can make precise stent placements while viewing live video on an integrated display mounted on the hand piece. The stent can be removed using a specialized hook device. The system can have a single use portion that includes the cannula with imaging module, stent and outer sleeve. The re-usable portion can include the hand piece and display screen.
