ConMed Linvatec 5.5mm 0º HD Autoclavable Laparoscope 325 mm Refurbished

The ConMed Linvatec is a 5.5 mm 0-degree rod-lens laparoscope used for laparoscopy. It relays a direct optical image of the abdominal or pelvic cavity to a coupled camera head for display on a surgical monitor.

Rigid rod-lens endoscopes carry the image along a train of glass rod lenses rather than a fiber bundle, which transmits more light and resolves finer detail than older thin-lens or fiberoptic designs. The scope has no light source or sensor of its own: it couples to a separate camera head at the eyepiece and draws illumination from a light cable connected at the light post, and it is introduced through a trocar cannula. Its forward-viewing optic gives a straight, on-axis line of sight suited to direct, in-line visualization. A sealed, autoclavable construction lets the scope be steam-sterilized between cases instead of being restricted to chemical soak. Instruments of this class are handled by general, gynecologic, urologic, and bariatric surgeons.

Key Features

• 0-degree viewing angle - keeps the line of sight straight down the shaft axis for in-line work.
• 5.5 mm diameter - a shaft sized for smaller ports while retaining a usable light and image budget.
• 325 mm working length - sets the reach from the coupling to the tip for the target anatomy.
• Light-post illumination - accepts a fiberoptic light cable so illumination scales with the connected light source.
• high-definition camera compatibility - couples to high-definition camera heads so resolution tracks the connected imaging chain.
• Standard eyepiece - mates to a clip-on camera coupler, keeping the scope compatible across camera brands.
• Autoclavable - tolerates steam sterilization, fitting a same-day turnover reprocessing workflow.

Ideal For

• Hospital and ambulatory surgical operating rooms
• General and gynecologic laparoscopic surgery
• Facilities running tower-based HD or 4K camera systems
• Use by general, gynecologic, urologic, and bariatric surgeons
