Abstract
An improved cart for a surgical console. The cart includes a base, an internal frame coupled to the base, and an external housing substantially encasing the internal frame. The external housing comprises a single piece of molded plastic. The external housing prevents operating room fluid ingress into the internal frame. Therefore, the internal frame, its various portions, and the various electronic apparatus and consumables that are stored therein are protected from corrosion and damage.
