 Introduction : Because an endoscope is used in NOTES, the obtained image is very limited compared to a laparoscope. Furthermore, the image fluctuates simultaneously with manipulations and a stable visual field is difficult to obtain as well as the entire image of the manipulations. We developed a micro CCD camera that is insertable through the gastrointestinal tract and that is fixable to the abdominal wall, successfully providing NOTES with a stable visual field.

 Methods and Procedures : A micro CCD camera, a battery-contained independent image teleporter is insertable intraperitoneally through the gastrointestinal tract. The camera has a mechanism by which it is easily removable from the endoscope tip and possesses in its forefront a mechanism by which it grasps and hangs from the abdominal wall after entry into the peritoneal cavity. The CCD micro-camera is fixed to the abdominal wall with a needle-type fixing unit of pantograph mechanism that is extruded by the wireless activation of an antifogging mechanism in the intraperitoneal cavity. The CCD unit that has photocatalyst and a physical wiper mechanism, exerts its antifogging ability in the intraperitoneal cavity. A dry box and a task for conventional LAS were used to assess visual field securement and image stability. Subsequently, two pigs were used to assess the image stability and the antifogging ability of the CCD camera in the intraperitoneal cavity.

 Results : The dry box completely maintained image stability. In animal study, the image fluctuated in association with the slight vibrations of the abdominal wall when inserting the camera into the peritoneal cavity of the animals. However, the manipulations themselves of NOTES never affected the fluctuations of the image. Regarding fogging the maximum issue of an intraperitoneally insertable CCD camera, we successfully verified that the camera can obtain a sufficient antifogging ability when prepared in such a manner to certainly fulfill the setting conditions for the photocatalyst on the CCD lens. Conclusions : We verified that a micro CCD camera, that is attachable to the abdominal wall independently and separately from the endoscope, could be a useful device visual field securement in NOTES.
