New Iglesias Resectoscope with Continuous Irrigation, Simultaneous Suction and Low Intravesical Pressure

Abstract: The new Iglesias resectoscope that allows simultaneous suction, continuous irrigation and low intravesical pressure is described. Advantages of this instrument include no interruption, better endoscopic vision by a continuous clear inflow of more than 600 ml. per minute, a low intravesical pressure less than 10 mm. Hg during the transurethral resection, shorter operating time, less bleeding, easier teaching and no more wet floor and wet surgeon. Since the entire amount of irrigating fluid is collected blood lo… Show more

“…Although the first endoscopic electocoagulation method was described by Edwin Beer (1910), the first resectoscope was pioneered by Stern (1926) [7], with further improvements instituted by McCarthy (1931), and later by Iglesias (1975), who adapted the instrument to the resectoscope of modern times [8]. …”

“…Les résecteurs d'endomètre sont dérivés des résecteurs endoscopiques urologiques, type Iglesias et al [16], dont l'application gynécologique a été décrite pour la première fois par Hanning et al [17] en 1980 et Neuwirth [18] en 1978. Ce résecteur est constitué d'une optique de 4 mm de diamètre et d'une anse de résection montée sur un cha riot à ressort, le tout introduit dans une chemise de 8,6 mm de diamètre, comportant un système d'irrigation à double courant.…”
