ABSTRACT:
A remote tubing assembly is provided which includes a remote tubing attachment which is connected at a first end to a surgical suction/irrigation valve and at a second end to either an instrument insert probe, trocar(s), or a handpiece to provide concurrent smoke evacuation, suction and irrigation at an operative site while a surgeon is simultaneously utilizing surgical hand instruments at the operative site. The remote tubing assembly allows for major smoke removal as well as suction and irrigation while utilizing hand instruments. Thus, the present invention allows a surgeon to concentrate on detailed dissection, while keeping the operative field free of smoke and debris.
