Clinical Application
This trocar and cannula assembly provides a controlled access port for minimally invasive procedures where a 5.5 mm working channel is required. The device is used to establish and maintain percutaneous access to body cavities, enable CO2 insufflation through the integrated stop cock, and permit passage of 5.5 mm endoscopic instruments or scopes. Typical applications include diagnostic and operative laparoscopy and other procedures requiring a small-diameter secondary port.
Design & Configuration
The cannula features an integrated stop cock to allow controlled insufflation and to reduce gas loss during instrument exchanges. The trocar mates with the cannula to create a guarded entry through tissue; once the trocar is removed the cannula provides a stable working channel. The 5.5 mm lumen diameter balances a low-profile percutaneous footprint with the ability to accommodate commonly used small-diameter laparoscopic instruments, minimizing port-site trauma while maintaining functional access.
Instrument Specifications
- Instrument type: Trocar and cannula assembly
- Pattern / model: Standard
- Configuration: Integrated stop cock for insufflation control
- Size: 5.5 mm lumen diameter
- Typical use: Percutaneous access, insufflation, and instrument passage in minimally invasive procedures

Material & Construction
Constructed from medical-grade stainless steel to provide durability, corrosion resistance, and long service life in a reusable instrument. The internal lumen and valve geometry are engineered to allow smooth instrument passage while maintaining an effective seal when the stop cock is closed. The assembly is designed for routine cleaning and sterilization between cases.
Quality & Compliance
Manufactured by FDA-registered OEM facilities and produced under strict quality control standards.
Brand Comparison
