This Transanal Ileus Tube Set is purpose-built for the decompression of left-sided colonic obstructions, often caused by advanced colorectal cancer. It serves as a critical tool for preoperative decompression, allowing for a safer, elective "bridge to surgery" approach.
Rigid Catheter Construction: Designed with a firm yet flexible shaft to navigate the tortuous anatomy of the left colon and rectum without kinking.
Large Lumen: Features a wide drainage lumen to effectively decompress the colon by removing solid stool and gas, reducing bowel wall edema.
Atraumatic Tip: Equipped with a rounded, non-traumatic tip to minimize the risk of perforation or mucosal injury during placement.
Contrast Infusion: The design allows for easy infusion of contrast media, enabling the physician to assess the length and etiology of the stricture.
Locking Mechanism: Includes a robust external fixation plate to secure the tube at the anal verge post-placement.
Preoperative "bridge to surgery" for malignant left-sided colonic obstruction, acute colonic pseudo-obstruction (Ogilvie's Syndrome).
