METHOD OF IMPROVING ELASTICITY OF TISSUE OF LIVING BODY

摘要

A method of improving elasticity of a tissue of a living body, the method including: forming a through-hole in the living body; inserting an insertion path forming unit, which includes a pipe member including a pipe and a support member including a support rod, into the through-hole in a state where the pipe member and the support member are assembled; removing the support member from the insertion path forming unit; coupling a medical thread supply unit to the pipe member; pushing the medical thread from behind by using a push unit; and removing the push unit, the medical thread supply unit, and the pipe member.

1. A method of improving elasticity of a tissue of a living body, the method comprising:
forming a through-hole in the living body; inserting an insertion path forming unit, which comprises a pipe member comprising a pipe that is hollow and forms a path through which a medical thread is to be inserted and a support member comprising a support rod that is inserted into the pipe of the pipe member and has a stiffness greater than a stiffness of the pipe member, into the through-hole in a state where the pipe member and the support member are assembled; removing the support member from the insertion path forming unit; coupling a medical thread supply unit to the pipe member; pushing the medical thread from behind by using a push unit that may slide in the pipe of the pipe member in a longitudinal direction of the pipe of the pipe member and pushes the medical thread through the pipe of the pipe member; and removing the push unit, the medical thread supply unit, and the pipe member.
