Microsurgical probes having a distal tip with a flat outer surface and a flat inner surface, and methods of forming such probes, are disclosed.
1. A method of forming a vitrectomy probe, comprising;
disposing a tubular needle within a collet;
rotating said collet and said needle at high speed;
providing a tool having a generally flat distal surface with a convex spherical projection extending from said generally flat distal surface;
contacting an edge of a distal end of said needle with said convex, spherical projection; and
moving said tool across said distal end of said needle from said edge to slightly past a centerline of said needle so that said distal end of said needle is formed into a closed distal tip having a flat outer surface and a flat inner surface.
This application claims the priority of U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/725,526 filed Oct. 11, 2005.
The present invention generally pertains to microsurgical probes and more particularly to ophthalmic microsurgical probes such as vitrectomy probes.
Posterior segment ophthalmic surgical procedures generally require the cutting and/or removal of the vitreous humor, a transparent jelly-like material that fills the posterior segment of the eye. The vitreous humor, or vitreous, is composed of numerous microscopic fibers that are often attached to the retina. Therefore, cutting and removal of the vitreous must be done with great care to avoid traction on the retina, the separation of the retina from the choroid, a retinal tear, or, in the worst case, cutting and removal of the retina itself.
The use of microsurgical cutting probes in posterior segment ophthalmic surgery is well known. Such vitrectomy probes are typically inserted via an incision in the sclera near the pars plana. The surgeon may also insert other microsurgical instruments such as a fiber optic illuminator, an infusion cannula, or an aspiration probe during the posterior segment surgery. The surgeon performs the procedure while viewing the eye under a microscope.
Conventional vitrectomy probes typically include a hollow outer cutting member, a hollow inner cutting member arranged coaxially with and movably disposed within the hollow outer cutting member, and a port extending radially through the outer cutting member near the distal end thereof. Vitreous humor is aspirated into the open port, and the inner member is actuated, closing the port. Upon the closing of the port, cutting surfaces on both the inner and outer cutting members cooperate to cut the vitreous, and the cut vitreous is then aspirated away through the inner cutting member. U.S. Pat. No. 4,577,629 (Martinez); U.S. Pat. No. 5,019,035 (Missirlian et al.); U.S. Pat. No. 4,909,249 (Akkas et al.); U.S. Pat. No. 5,176,628 (Charles et al.); U.S. Pat. No. 5,047,008 (de Juan et al.); 4,696,298 (Higgins et al.); and U.S. Pat. No. 5,733,297 (Wang) all disclose various types of vitrectomy probes, and each of these patents is incorporated herein in its entirety by reference.
During posterior segment ophthalmic surgery, it is generally desirable to remove as much of the overlying vitreous as possible prior to any procedure to repair the underlying retina. However, a surgeon is limited in how close to the retina he or she can dispose a conventional vitrectomy probe due to the geometry of the probe tip and the cutting port. Therefore, a need continues to exist for an improved vitrectomy probe that does not suffer from the above-described limitations.
One aspect of the present invention is a microsurgical probe. The probe comprises a tubular body having an inner bore, a port providing access to the inner bore, and a closed distal tip. The distal tip has a flat inner surface.
Another aspect of the present invention is a first method of forming a microsurgical probe. A tubular needle is disposed within a collet. The collet and the needle are rotated at high speed. A tool having a generally flat distal surface with a spherical projection thereon is provided. An edge of a distal end of the needle is contacted with the spherical projection. The tool is moved across the distal end of the needle from the edge to slightly past a centerline of the needle so that the distal end of the needle is formed into a closed distal tip having a flat outer surface and a flat inner surface.
Another aspect of the present invention is a second method of forming a microsurgical probe. A distal end of a tubular needle is disposed in contact with a sheet of foil. A compressive force is imparted to the needle and the foil. An electrical impulse is sent between the needle and the foil so that the foil is welded to the needle. The needle is disposed in a punch die, and the needle is punched through the foil so that a closed distal tip having a flat outer surface and a flat inner surface is formed.
For a more complete understanding of the present invention, and for further objects and advantages thereof, reference is made to the following description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in which:
The preferred embodiments of the present invention and their advantages are best understood by referring to
Distal tip 30 has a convex, spherical outer surface 34 and a concave, spherical inner surface 36. Distal tip 30 is manufactured using a conventional spin forming process. In conventional spin forming, tubular needle stock is rotated and a tool having a generally concave distal end is brought into contact with the end of the needle. The force of the tool on the rotating needle closes the end of the tube and creates a distal tip 30 having a spherical geometry.
Distal tip 30 a has a flat outer surface 42 and a convex, spherical inner surface 44. Distal tip 30 a is manufactured using a conventional bead (or TIG) welding process. In conventional bead welding, an electrode is placed above the end of tubular needle stock and an electric current is passed between the needle and the electrode. A bead of material is formed on the needle end, creating a closed distal tip 30 a having a spherical geometry. Secondary machining operations are performed on outer surface 42 to make it flat. However, inner surface 44 retains a convex, spherical shape because the inside weld flash is difficult to control.
As is explained in greater detail hereinbelow, flat outer surface 16 a and flat inner surface 16 b are preferably formed using an improved spin forming process, or a resistance welding process. Flat outer surface 16 a and flat inner surface 16 b result in distal end 18 a of port 18 being a smaller distance 20 from outer surface 16 a than compared to the distance 40 between distal end 38 of port 32 and outer surface 34 of conventional probe 22, or the distance 48 between distal end 46 of port 32 and outer surface 42 of conventional probe 24. Flat inner surface 16 b also allows distal end 18 a of port 18 to be disposed in a nearly coplanar arrangement with inner surface 16 b. In contrast, distal end 38 of port 32 of conventional probe 22 is offset from its inner surface 36 due to the concave, spherical geometry of inner surface 36. Similarly, distal end 46 of port 32 of conventional probe 24 is offset from its inner surface 44 due to the uncertain tolerances of the inside weld flash in the bead welding process. Distance 20 is preferably about 0.006 inches to about 0.016 inches, and is most preferably about 0.006 inches to about 0.011 inches. Distal end 18 a of port 18 is preferably disposed about 0.003 inches to about 0.005 inches from inner surface 16 b. By minimizing distance 20, a surgeon may dispose probe 10 closer to the retina without contacting the retina. Thus, with probe 10 the surgeon may remove more of the overlying vitreous before performing a procedure to repair the underlying retina than with conventional probes 22 or 24.
From the above, it may be appreciated that the present invention provides improved apparatus and methods of performing vitrectomy surgery. The present invention is illustrated herein by example, and various modifications may be made by a person of ordinary skill in the art. For example, although the present invention is described herein in connection with a vitrectomy probe, it is applicable to other ophthalmic microsurgical probes and non-ophthalmic micrsosurgical probes. As another example, although the present invention is described herein in connection with a cutting probe, it is also applicable to an aspiration probe.
It is believed that the operation and construction of the present invention will be apparent from the foregoing description. While the apparatus and methods shown or described above have been characterized as being preferred, various changes and modifications may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined in the following claims.

China's auto industry is revving for international expansion.
After years serving as the country where the world's cars (or at least a large number of their parts) were made, China's auto execs are eyeing established international carmakers to take over.
Reuters recently listed several such proposed mergers, with Geely Automotive's parent company approaching Canadian auto parts maker Magna International about a stake in Opel (Magna isn't interested), and preparing a bid for Ford's Volvo unit.Continue reading...

Beautiful Invitation
I absolutely loved this invitation. The only negative I have is that the space on the back was limited for what I wanted to say. Other than that, the quality was amazing and I was even able to modify the color so that it fit my wedding color perfectly!
Amazing quality and customizable
Magnet street was able to customize and remove a feature I didn't want. Then it became the perfect program!
Totally impressed my guests
I felt the picture I saw on the screen when I made it was a great representation of what it actually looked like when I received it. I was very happy and impressed and would use them all over again.
Beautiful Card
Love the wedding programs I ordered from Magnet Street. I ordered for the first time, and it has been a great experience. People who have seen the programs love them. The blue colors, periwinkle and rain, are beautiful. The comments from other ppl about the program we chose, Simple Tradition, are that they like the burst of color when you open the card. The writing shows up so well on the colored background! The detailing is very pretty! I ordered and received my wedding programs in 6 days. That made me the happiest, bc I ordered them close to our wedding date. Great timing!
Beautiful wedding program
Good quality paper Easy to personalize and many color choices

What's a Wrap Party and Can I make Money Doing WRAP PARTIES…..
What is a Wrap Party?
Wrap Parties are a fun way to GET the It Works Wrap on a few friends. You will get to see everyone amazing results right then and there.
It Works is not a Party Plan company, but we like to Party! A Wrap Party is a fun way to show your friends and family how easy it is to apply the Wrap, sample other It Works products and simply have a great get together with friends and let them all share in the excitement of seeing each others results.
For new Distributors a Wrap Party is a great way to kick off your business. We say it is your Grand Opening. Every business needs a Grand Opening Party, so this is your way to let your friends and family know about the new, Amazing Product you have your hands on. Plus for Distributors this is a great way to introduce our Loyal Customer Program or share the business.
To start the Wrap Party welcome all your guest, have them pay for their It Works Wrap $25 (some charge $30), then send them back to the wrapping room right away. You'll want them to be wrapped at the beginning of the party so they can wear it for the full 45 minutes. The most popular area to wrap is belly, but many love to wrap their arms and neck. The It Works Wrap can be cut to target any specific area.
The first thing you want to do is Take a Before Picture or you can measure in 3 different spots the area being wrapped.
Once everyone is wrapped, you can start your party. Simply use the brochure the company provides to guide you through our product line. The products we usually talk about at parties are ones guest can sample, ie. Greens, Chews, ProFit, Defining Gel and Fat Fighter. You don't have to be an expert on the products, just let people try them and tell them how they have worked for you.
Can I make money with my own Wrap Party?
Yes you can. Buy the It Works Wraps as a distributor at wholesale then retail the It Works products at your party. Your party will usually have between 6-10 people and you can earn $25/$30 (wrap cost) X 10. That gives you $250/$300 cash in your pocket.
Out of the 10 that come to your party you could possibly get 4 new loyal customers who will order each month from you. And the chances are highly possible that 1 of your guest will want to become a distributor, so they can do their own wrap party business. This will be the start of your new business. Now imagine if you hosted 4 wrap party events every month? Can you see the possibilities?
Tell me More about the Wrap Party.
The home party will last no more than an hour. You will spend the first 30 minutes wrapping the guest and talking about the products. The last 30 minutes of your home party will be spent with a demonstration of the It Works Wrap, tasting the greens, and sampling our new protein shake called ProFit.
Once the hour is complete, take the It Works Wraps off, remeasure and take an After picture. Most guests will see immediate results. All of them will be toned, tightened and looking great.

Lafayette Weather – Rain Chances Return To Normal This Week
Temperatures will be on the rise while rain chances will be a lot less than they were late last week. Acadiana will finally get the chance to drain.
Temperatures will be on the rise while rain chances will be a lot less than they were late last week. Acadiana will finally get the chance to drain.
Our friends at Acadian Ambulance have posted some very timely info - especially on a day like today - Driving and safety tips for inclement weather.
Police remind everyone to drive safely.
Some parts of Acadiana might see as much as 6 inches of rain before this soggy weather system moves out of the area. Find out where to get sandbags if you need them and check the latest weather radar scan.
Residents are asked to take no more than 20 bags per household.
The brief break from the July heat and humidity will come to an end later today. Rain chances will be on the increase with a good possibility of thundershowers by tomorrow.
A nice scattering of rain and thunderstorms this afternoon will yield to less humid conditions for tomorrow. We need the rain and we'll take the drier air.
Rain chances are expected to increase by Tuesday as a cold front approaches Acadiana. The area could see an additional one to two inches of rainfall.
If you're a night sky watcher like I am, this weekend has something a little special in store for you as the first of three summer "super" or "buck" moons will be in the sky.
There could be more tropical downpours this afternoon and the heat index should reach into the triple digits. It's July in Acadiana.

If I wanted to get anything in the world in Europe, I would just go to any port city. The best one probably is Amsterdam. Heck, I was a approached by a sailor with a wooden arm (yes it was a wooden prosthetic) who wanted to sell me seedy items. He poked his wooden arm with a butterfly knife just to show off. I swore he reminded me of a pirate.
Was Dukakis the one who said he would not execute a man who would rape and murder his wife? I think a reporter asked the question, or maybe it was during a debate.
The article is BS. That supposed felon regurgitating the same BS that liberal politicians say is why we need more gun control. The only reason any felon is pro gon control is they want you unarmed and an easier target.
Libs just want more control and they will stoop to even using felons, made up or not to push that agenda. Criminals break laws. Excessive laws make more criminals. The only people that can't be criminals it seems are liberal politicians. Even when they break the law.
The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. Thomas Jefferson
Any law maker that votes to restrict 2A rights is violating their oath of office and is therefore a criminal. So now we have a country being run by criminals. Is it any wonder we are in such a mess?

I personally don't see anything wrong with letting convicted felons set policy regarding gun laws (sarcastically said) and I am sure that Feinstein, Schumer and their ilk would agree (honestly said).

Jane McConnell
Ruth Jane McConnell Riley, age 85, passed away peacefully, surrounded by family, in Salt Lake City on April 1, 2013. Ruth was born in an old stone house on August 14, 1927 to Julia and Clarence McConnell in Jackson County, Minnesota. She graduated from Okabena High School and later from cosmetology school in Mankato, Minnesota.
She married James (Jim) Matt Riley on January 29, 1949 at the Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Brewster, Minnesota. They lived in Minneapolis where Jim completed his education at the
University of Minnesota
. She worked as a beautician at Dayton's Department Store, until the first of their seven daughters was born. Their young and growing family followed Jim's career as a chemical and mining engineer to Riverdale, North Dakota and Rapid City, South Dakota, before settling in Salt Lake City. Ruth and Jim were quite a sight to see, with their seven daughters lined up in church, all wearing red coats.
She was a devoted homemaker, mother, wife and grandmother. She was a devout Catholic and member of St. Vincent de Paul Parish. She loved her cats and had a very tender heart for pets. She took in and found homes for many strays.
She was preceded in death by her parents, and a brother, Lloyd McConnell. She is survived by her husband Jim, her sister, Mavis Baumguard, Worthington Minn., daughters Catherine (Bob Lambert), Mary Ellen, Jane (Hugh Brown), Joan, Rita (Leo Embry), Sara (Paul Colosimo) and Trudi (Jim Frenchik). She was the beloved "Pink Gram" to her 16 grandchildren, Rob, Patrick, Shawn, Jeff, Ben, Monica, Brian, Eric, Melissa, Anna, Ryan, Lucy, Sam, Riley, Alex and Mathew. She was also blessed with 3 great-grandchildren.
A funeral mass will be celebrated Saturday, April 6, 2013 at 11:00 a.m. at St. Vincent de Paul Catholic Church, 1375 East Spring Lane, SLC, Ut., where friends may call upon the family one hour prior. A rosary service will be held Friday at 7:00 p.m. at St. Vincent's, where friends may call from 6:00 - 7:00 pm. Committal to follow at Mt. Calvary Catholic Cemetery, 4th Avenue and "T" Street.
In lieu of flowers donations may be made to The Humane Society of Utah. Online condolences may be offered to the family at

text: But, Save the Children! Not so in Colorado. It's time for governments across the globe to be more efficient with the money they're already taking. Colorado voters reject raising taxes to support education November 1, 2011 | 8:20pm In what could be a harbinger of the 2012 election, Colorado voters Tuesday overwhelmingly rejected a measure that would have raised nearly $3 billion for education by temporarily increasing state income, sales and use taxes. With 59% of the projected vote counted, Proposition 103 was trailing 65% to 35%, the Associated Press reported. The debate over the measure closely mirrored recent rancor in Washington over the question of whether more spending will revive a moribund economy or slow down a nascent recovery.

Can anyone ID this white plumeria?
My neighbor's big tree is just starting to bloom. I've got a few rooted cuttings from it. I'm new to plumerias and to me it looks pretty generic. Any ideas?
You ought to take a photo of the back of the bloom too, as well as of the whole plant...just in case there are any tell-tale characteristics that might id it. For example Psycho White has a red stripe on the back of each petal.
Unfortunately, whites are quite common and it could be anything, or a seedling.
Hey Jaundy,
I prefaced and stated that "it is early in the season to ID". Because its still cold in So Cal plumies usually do not look the same in terms of intensity of color or marking, even shapes are effected by cooler temps and overcast weather.
So I definitely think Bill would be the person to identify Psycho White as he sees it in all the different temps and forms.
Those of you who know me have heard this before, but you cannot ever really identify a plant from a picture. Because we do this, people buy plants that are look alikes but not the actual plant. If you get a cutting off a plant, you know what you get. With seedlings, you can get a variety that looks so much like a named plant that you would put money on it except you know the pod came off an entirely different plant. That said, this could be a relative of Psycho or Gardena but until someone develops genome tests for plumerias, we will never really know. You can call it a Psycho, but sell cuttings as possibly a psycho or looks like a psycho. Bring over a flower and a leaf sometime in the summer and you can have a better idea by matching the psycho mom; Bill

As a newly wed couple, my husband and I went to Zanzibar and spent 11 nights at Mashariki for our honeymoon. We absolutely loved everything about this hotel. The design of the hotel is wonderful in capturing the feeling of a thousand and one nights. It is very well restored and beautifully furnished. The staff were super friendly and very helpful, and the owners who happened to be there during our stay were wonderful and attentive to our needs. Unfortunately I got sick with the flu and the hotel arranged for a doctor to come since I hardly left the room in 3 days. They were all very caring and would even call our room to make sure I was ok. They were all our little family during our stay and we created such wonderful bonds with the owners and staff. The hotel is super clean with modern toilets (which is very important in third world countries). The hotel is located close to a market, several restaurants, and a park all within walking distance. Be aware that Stone Town is a bit noisy in terms of the people talking loudly outside, so when in your room there are times when you will hear children screaming or loud salesmen. Nevertheless it's a wonderful experience to get away from the materialistic world of today. My husband and I plan on visiting again in the future and look forward to staying at Mashariki once again. Thank you to the Mashariki family for making our honeymoon one we will never forget.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- Stone Town, Zanzibar: Exotic and mystical, evocative of the centuries of sultans, traders, adventurers and explorers who came to these magical isles of Zanzibar off the Swahili East African coast, leaving a cultural and architectural fusion which echoes its proud history of Persian, Arabian, Indian, Colonial and African influences.Stone Town is now home to the new MASHARIKI PALACE Hotel. This is the Eastern Palace on the islands, once the seat of the Omani empire spanning a thousand miles, created by the first sultan of Zanzibar almost 200 years ago. The domicile of the Sultan's religious councillor is now restored beyond its former magnificence.The MASHARIKI PALACE Hotel is a privileged residence for travellers choosing refined hospitality in a historical setting. ... more less
- Reservation Options:
- TripAdvisor is proud to partner with Travelocity, Expedia, Hotels.com, Hotel.de, Agoda, Despegar.com, Booking.com and Tingo so you can book your Mashariki Palace Hotel reservations with confidence. We help millions of travelers each month to find the perfect hotel for both vacation and business trips, always with the best discounts and special offers.

With text blocks hand-inked on the page by Anne Carson and her collaborator Robert Currie, Antigonick features translucent vellum pages with stunning drawings by Bianca Stone that overlay the text.
