Abstract
A device for mounting a tubular sleeve for an obturator of a trocar to a patient's body includes a sleeve-holding part for attaching to the sleeve and a skin-fixation part for attaching to the patient's skin surface. The sleeve-holding part may be formed by an annular washer made of an elastic material which permits a user to move it longitudinally with respect to the sleeve so as to adjust their relative positions. The skin-fixation part may be a crossbar and a cord attached to the washer at one end and to the crossbar at the other. The cord is stapled to the patient's body for fixation.
