THORACIC SCOPE WITH SKIRT AND GAP

摘要

A minimally invasive viewing instrument including a cannula configured and adapted to house a scope having a lens. An attachment member including a skirt member is configured and adapted to maintain the lens of the scope at a distance away from the distal end of the skirt member to minimize the potential of lens contamination. Moreover, the materials shape, and/or contours of the skirt member is configured and adapted to divert the flow of bodily fluid away from the lens, thereby reducing the potential of lens contamination.
