Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9304635A1] A fascia cutter (10) comprises a shaft (12) having a transverse slot (18) at its distal end (14). The blade (20) is reciprocatably mounted within the shaft (12) so that it may be axially advanced within the slot (18). A rod (24) for manually reciprocating the blade (20) is provided on the proximal end (16) of the shaft. The fascia cutter (10) is useful for enlarging previously formed abdominal penetrations where the shaft (12) is inserted in the penetration, the slot (18) is engaged about the edge of the fascia, and a radial incision is made in the fascia.
