Patent abstract
A surgical imaging device includes a rigid body. The rigid body includes an elongate member extending longitudinally along a central axis to a sharp distal tip. The sharp distal tip is configured to pierce through tissue to access an interior of a cavity of a patient. The rigid body also includes a bore extending longitudinally through at least a portion of the elongate member. The surgical imaging device further includes a camera secured to the elongate member of the rigid body within the bore of the rigid body. The camera is adapted to capture images of the interior of the cavity of the patient when the sharp distal tip has pierced through the tissue to access the interior of the cavity of the patient.
