Definitions
- the invention relates to a tissue punch, and more particularly, the invention relates to a tissue punch for forming an opening in a target blood vessel for deploying an anastomosis device to connect a graft vessel to the target blood vessel.
- Vascular anastomosis is a procedure by which two blood vessels within a patient are surgically joined together. Vascular anastomosis is performed during treatment of a variety of conditions including coronary artery disease, diseases of the great and peripheral vessels, organ transplantation, and trauma.
- coronary artery disease CAD
- an occlusion or stenosis in a coronary artery interferes with blood flow to the heart muscle.
- Treatment of CAD involves the grafting of a vessel in the form of a prosthesis or harvested artery or vein to reroute blood flow around the occlusion and restore adequate blood flow to the heart muscle. This treatment is known as coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).
- CABG coronary artery bypass grafting
- vascular anastomosis device which easily connects a graft vessel to a target vessel and can be deployed in limited space.
- a sutureless anastomosis device such as those described in U.S. Patent Application Serial No. 09/314,278, involves forming an opening in the target vessel and inserting the anastomosis device with a graft vessel attached into the opening. Accordingly, it would be desirable to provide a one piece tool which can perform both tissue punching and anastomosis device deployment. In order to provide a one piece device it would be desirable to provide a tissue punch which is advanced through a trocar and then is moved out of the trocar to allow deployment of the anastomosis device through the same trocar.
- the present invention relates to a tissue punch for forming an opening in a target blood vessel for deploying an anastomosis device to connect a graft vessel to the target vessel.
- an apparatus for piercing a vessel, punching a hole in the vessel, removing punched tissue from the vessel, and introducing an object into the vessel through the punched hole is described.
- the apparatus includes a punch with a pointed piercing end for piercing a vessel to allow introduction of the punch into the vessel, a tubular element arranged coaxially with the punch through which the punch retracts to remove vessel tissue, and an introducer located coaxially around the tubular element.
- a tissue punch includes a piercing element, a cutting edge, and a trocar receiving the piercing element.
- the piercing element has a pointed distal end, a tissue receiving space, and an anvil adjacent the tissue receiving space.
- the cutting edge is arranged to contact the anvil to cut a piece of tissue.
- the trocar has a side opening for removing the piercing element from the trocar after punching tissue.
- a method of punching a plug of tissue from the wall of a blood vessel includes the steps of penetrating the wall of the blood vessel with a piercing element to form an opening in the blood vessel, punching a plug of tissue around the opening in the blood vessel, and inserting a trocar into the punched hole in the blood vessel.

- the tissue punch according to the present invention is used to create a hole in a wall of a target blood vessel for receiving an anastomosis device to connect a graft vessel to the target vessel.
- the tissue punch includes a piercing element for penetrating the target vessel wall, a cutter for cutting a plug of tissue, and a trocar which is inserted in the opening in the wall after punching has been completed. After punching is complete, the piercing element is removed from the trocar and the anastomosis device is then deployed through the open lumen of the trocar.
- the tissue punch according to the present invention is particularly useful for use in coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in which a graft vessel is connected at opposite ends to the aorta and to a coronary artery.
- CABG coronary artery bypass grafting
- the target vessel which is punched with the tissue punch can be any vessel including but not limited to the aorta, coronary artery, and arteries leading to the arms or head.
- the graft vessel for connection to the target vessel can be an arterial graft, a venous graft, or a synthetic prosthesis, as required.
- the anastomosis procedure is preferably performed with minimally invasive procedures, without the stoppage of blood flow in the target vessel, and without the use of cardiopulmonary bypass.
- the anastomosis procedure may also be performed as a stopped heart and/or open chest procedure.
- the tissue punches according to the present invention are incorporated in a one piece tool which performs tissue punching and deployment of the anastomosis device.
- This one piece tool may be operated manually, such as by cams, or automatically, such as pneumatically.
- FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a tissue punch 10 according to the invention which includes a one-piece piercing element 14 positioned within an introducer sheath or trocar 16.
- the piercing element 14 can be advanced and retracted in the trocar 16 by an elongated member 18 such as a spring steel strap or cable which extends through an opening 20 in a side of the trocar.
- the piercing element 14 includes a pointed distal tip 22 for penetrating the target vessel wall and a narrow shaft portion 28 around which the tissue of the target vessel wall contracts after piercing.
- the distal tip 12 may be formed, for example, as a conical surface or by a plurality of ground surfaces extending to a point at the distal tip.
- An anvil surface 24 is located on the piercing element 14 between the distal tip 22 and the shaft 28. The anvil surface 24 acts with a cutting edge 26 of the trocar 16 to cut an annular plug of tissue.
- the piercing element 14 is forcibly advanced to puncture the target vessel wall. After piercing, the tissue of the target vessel wall rests around the shaft portion 28 of the piercing element 14. The piercing element 14 is then pulled back inside the trocar 16 by the elongated member 18 to cut an annular plug of tissue by compressing the tissue between the anvil surface 24 of the piercing element and the cutting edge 26 of the trocar 16. The cut plug of tissue can be trapped in an annular space surrounding the shaft 28 and removed from the surgical site on the piercing element 14. By using the tissue punch 10 to cut a plug of the target vessel wall tissue in this manner, there is less tendency for tearing.
- FIGS. 1-5 illustrate the steps of punching and then removing the piercing element 14 from the side opening of the trocar 16 to allow the anastomosis device to be deployed through the lumen of the trocar.
- the piercing element 14 is in an extended piercing position. In this position, the tissue punch is advanced into the target vessel wall.
