Balloon Trocars
Single-use balloon trocars for secure, atraumatic cannula fixation in laparoscopic surgery. An inflatable, tear-resistant balloon and an external retention disc anchor the cannula from both sides of the abdominal wall, minimising gas leakage and cannula displacement during long procedures and after specimen removal. Suitable for intraperitoneal and preperitoneal access. Available in 5mm, 10mm and 12mm diameters, with optical, blunt or bladed obturators.

Features and benefits
- Maintains pneumoperitoneum: reduces gas leakage through larger incisions, allowing laparoscopy to continue after specimen removal
- Tamponade effect: may reduce bleeding by applying pressure to the incision
- Lower intra-abdominal profile: secure fixation minimises cannula depth, increasing working space and visibility
- Stable fixation: gentle anchoring above and below the abdominal wall minimises unintended cannula migration during long procedures
- Short 5mm option for paediatric surgery, gynaecology and urology
- Available in 5mm, 10mm and 12mm diameters, with optical, blunt or bladed obturators
- Compact Tyvek® packaging minimises space and waste per procedure
