ABSTRACT:
A method for locating additional cannulae in surgery on a patient having a body with tissue and overlying skin with the use of a guide member having proximal and distal extremities comprising introducing the distal extremity of the guide member through the skin of the body to a first location in the body. The distal extremity of the guide member is advanced in a direction below the skin to a second location remote from the first location. The distal extremity of the guide member is advanced through the skin of the patient at the second location from within the body to a position outside the body so that the distal extremity is exposed outside the body. A cannula is placed over the distal extremity of the guide member and is advanced through the skin of the patient at the second location utilizing the guide member as a guide. The distal extremity of the guide member is removed from the cannula.
