Abstract

The invention relates to a device for catheterisation of the Fallopian tubes from underneath. It consists of: - 1 catheter 5, of small diameter, which tapers at its distal end 6. - 1 curved introduction catheter 2 fitted with a metal ring 4 at its distal end, thus allowing location and echographic inspection. - 1 metal mandrel 1 making it possible to straighten the curve of the introduction catheter. - 1 injection device (for example a syringe) 7. The catheters are made of teflon or any other suitable material which combines the qualities of leaktightness, flexibility and memory. The tapered catheter is fitted into the tube to be catheterised by sliding the catheter inside the introduction catheter whose curved end has previously been engaged in the mouth of the tube. This engagement is obtained in two successive operations. The first operation consists in bringing the distal end of the introduction catheter - straightened using the mandrel - to the mouth of the tube. The second operation consists in carrying out the engagement and extension in the mouth of the tube by withdrawing the mandrel, which allows the catheter to return to its initial curvature and to lodge in the tube. The contents of the tapered catheter - previously filled - will be able to be deposited by means of a syringe which will be connected to it.

Description

La présente invention concerne un dispositif constitué par un ensemble de composants dont l'association permet la cathétérisation des trompes de Fallope par voie basse. The present invention relates to a device consisting of a set of components whose association allows catheterization of the fallopian tubes by the vaginal route.

Un tel dispositif peut être utilisé pour déposer dans les trompes le produit séminal dans certains cas où la fécondation s'avère difficile. D'autres applications de non moindre importance peuvent être envisagées. Such a device can be used to deposit the seminal product in the fallopian tubes in certain cases where fertilization proves difficult. Other applications of no less importance can be envisaged.

Le dispositif est essentiellement composé des sous-ensembles suivants : - 1 cathéter en téflon radiopaque d'environ lmm de diamètre et de 45 cm de longueur. La partie distale de ce cathéter est effilée sur une longueur de quelques centimètres de manière à ne présenter à l'extrémité qu'un diamètre d'environ 0,6 mtn.  The device is essentially composed of the following sub-assemblies: - 1 radiopaque teflon catheter of about 1 mm in diameter and 45 cm in length. The distal part of this catheter is tapered over a length of a few centimeters so as to have at the end only a diameter of about 0.6 mtn.

- 1 cathéter en téflon radiopaque comportant une courbe à sa partie distale. Ce cathéter dit d'introduction est destiné à permettre l'acheminement et le placement du cathéter précédent. Son diamètre intérieur est déterminé pour permettre au cathéter effilé d'y coulisser sans difficulté. Sa longueur est de l'ordre de 24 Cm.- 1 radiopaque teflon catheter with a curve at its distal part. This so-called introductory catheter is intended to allow the delivery and placement of the previous catheter. Its internal diameter is determined to allow the tapered catheter to slide there without difficulty. Its length is around 24 Cm.

L'extrémité distale du cathéter d'introduction est munie d'une bague métallique destinée au repérage et contrôle échographique.The distal end of the introducer catheter is provided with a metal ring for tracking and ultrasound control.

- 1 mandrin metallique d'environ i mm de diamètre et 26 centimètres de long. L'extrémité distale de ce mandrin est adoucie (émoussée) de manière à en éliminer toute aspérité. Le mandrin est destiné à redresser la courbe du cathéter d'introduction lors de la première phase de mise en place des cathéters.- 1 metal mandrel about i mm in diameter and 26 centimeters long. The distal end of this mandrel is softened (blunt) so as to eliminate any roughness. The mandrel is intended to straighten the curve of the introduction catheter during the first phase of catheter placement.

- i dispositif d'injection (par exemple, une seringue) de faible volume
las figures jointes illustrent un mode de réalisation du dispositif. La matière utilisée pour les cathéters présente comme caractéristique d'être ferme tout en ayant une certaine souplesse.- i small volume injection device (for example, a syringe)
The attached figures illustrate an embodiment of the device. The material used for catheters has the characteristic of being firm while having a certain flexibility.

Elle ne provoque donc pas de traumatismes pour les organes avec lesquels elle est mise en contact. Il est clair que d'autres matériaux présentant les caractéristiques adéquates pourraient être utilisés.It therefore does not cause trauma to the organs with which it is contacted. It is clear that other materials having the appropriate characteristics could be used.

De plus, des qualités de mémoire sont attachées au cathéter d'introduction car il faut qu'il puisse retrouver sa courbe initiale après que le mandrin en soit retiré.  In addition, memory qualities are attached to the introducer catheter because it must be able to return to its initial curve after the mandrel is removed from it.

Il est connu que la cathétérisation des trompes peut-être effectuée par voie haute, sous visualisation coelioscopique, par incision nombrilaire et pubienne. Une telle intervention est faite sous anesthésie générale. Le taux de réussite qui en résulte est considéré comme acceptable. Toutefois la procédure implique les contraintes liées à l'acte chirurgical. It is known that catheterization of the fallopian tubes can be carried out by the high way, under laparoscopic visualization, by navel and pubic incision. Such an intervention is done under general anesthesia. The resulting success rate is considered acceptable. However, the procedure involves the constraints linked to the surgical act.

Pour éviter d'avoir recours à la chirurgie, des procédures de cathétérisation par voie basse ont été développées. Celles-ci font appel à la technique maintenant répandue du placement d'un cathéter à l'aide d'un guide métallique. Le taux de réussite s'est avéré moins bon que par la méthode précédente. To avoid resorting to surgery, low-catheterization procedures have been developed. These use the now widespread technique of placing a catheter using a metal guide. The success rate turned out to be less good than with the previous method.

Le dispositif objet du présent brevet permet la cathétérisation des trompes par voie basse. Il évite ainsi les contraintes de la chirurgie. De plus, il procure un taux de réussite élevé grâce à la possibilité de chargement préalable du cathéter et à la précision avec laquelle sa mise en place dans l'isthme tubaire visualisé sous échographie- peut-etre pratiquée. The device which is the subject of this patent allows catheterization of the fallopian tubes. It thus avoids the constraints of surgery. In addition, it provides a high success rate thanks to the possibility of prior loading of the catheter and the precision with which its placement in the tubal isthmus viewed under ultrasound - can be practiced.

En un premier temps, le mandrin métallique (i) est inséré à fond dans le cathéter d'introduction (2) dont la courbe est ainsi redressée (3). L'ensemble ainsi formé est alors introduit par voie basse - sous contrôle échographique - jusqu a ce que l'extrémité du cathéter repérée par la bague métallique (4) soit au niveau de l'embouchure de la trompe à cathétériser. Un léger retrait du mandrin conjugé avec une orientation adéquate du cathéter permettra de négocier l'engagement de son extrémité dans l'embouchure de la trompe. First, the metal mandrel (i) is fully inserted into the introduction catheter (2), the curve of which is thus straightened (3). The assembly thus formed is then introduced by the vaginal route - under ultrasound control - until the end of the catheter identified by the metal ring (4) is at the level of the mouth of the tube to be catheterized. A slight withdrawal of the mandrel combined with an adequate orientation of the catheter will allow to negotiate the engagement of its end in the mouth of the tube.

Le mandrin est alors retiré complètement. Ce qui permettra au cathéter de retrouver sa courbe initiale et de le Iaire avancer jusqu'à l'isthme tubaire. The mandrel is then completely removed. This will allow the catheter to regain its initial curve and advance it to the tubal isthmus.

Le cathéter effilé (5) - chargé des éléments que l'on veut introduire dans la trompe - est alors inséré dans le cathéter d'introduction qui permettra son acheminement et son placement dans l'isthme tubaire. The tapered catheter (5) - loaded with the elements that we want to introduce into the fallopian tube - is then inserted into the introduction catheter which will allow its routing and placement in the tubal isthmus.

Il suffira de raccorder au cathéter effilé le dispositif d'injection (7) rempli d'un volume de liquide adéquat pour pouvoir déposer le contenu du cathéter à l'endroit voulu dans la trompe.  It will suffice to connect the injection device (7) filled with an adequate volume of liquid to the tapered catheter in order to be able to deposit the contents of the catheter at the desired location in the tube.
