Abstract

Appareil et méthode visant à doter un endoscope d'une multiplicité de conduits potentiels. Un tube (54) à parois flexibles radialement est placé de manière contiguë au tube d'insertion (34) de l'endoscope. Les parois du tube (54) sont affaissées avant l'introduction du tube d'insertion (34) dans le corps du patient. Après que ledit tube d'insertion (34) ait pénétré le corps du patient, le tube flexible est à nouveau dilaté pour former un conduit. Un appareil médical peut être introduit à travers ce conduit pour effectuer une opération médicale. On dilate le tube (54) en y plaçant une tige conique, en y faisant couler un fluide sous pression, ou en redressant un fil métallique plat enroulé dans une bobine cylindrique. Un tube rigide radialement est placé dans le tube (54) flexible dilaté pour permettre de prolonger des dispositifs médicaux d'un point extérieur au corps du patient jusqu'à l'extrémité distale du tube d'insertion (34). Une multiplicité de tubes (54) espacés les uns des autres de manière périphérique autour du tube d'insertion (34) sont prévus afin de permettre l'utilisation d'un ensemble de dispositifs médicaux en conjonction les uns avec les autres pour effectuer des opérations médicales. Un élément de raidissement, tel une baguette ou un fluide sous pression peut se prolonger en partie le long du tube d'insertion (34) pour varier les particularités de flexibilité du tube d'insertion (34) lorsqu'il se trouve dans le corps du patient.
