M. Matsuda et al., A new drainage tube with stylet (Stylet Drain) for laparoscopic surgery, 7TH WORLD CONGRESS OF ENDOSCOPIC SURGERY, 2000, pp. 833-836
We developed a new drainage tube with stylet (Stylet Drain(TM)) for precise
positioning in laparoscopic surgery. Stylet Drain is a tube type drain equ
ipped with a silicon membrane at its end to prevent air leakage. The stylet
is inserted to the tube from the silicon membrane prior to its use. Styler
Drain is a very useful drain that can be located in an appropriate positio
n and reduce operative time in laparoscopic surgery.
