Teleflex Incorporated (NYSE: TFX), a leading global provider of medical devices for critical care, urology and surgery, has announced that it will showcase its MiniLap® Percutaneous Surgical System, a range of 2.3 mm instruments percutaneously inserted, during the Scientific and Annual Meeting of European Society of Coloproctology (ESCP) to be held in Dublin, Ireland on September 23-25, 2015.

During the event, Teleflex will present its MiniLap® Percutaneous Surgical System as well as a diversified range of its Weck® Laparoscopic Instruments.

MiniLap® Instruments, with shaft diameters as slim as 2.3 mm, can be percutaneously inserted using an integrated needle tip. The grasper jaws or probe can then be deployed to grasp or coagulate tissue. The patented deployment design allows grasper jaws to open up to 12.5 mm to grasp difficult structures, like distended gall bladders. Procedures using the MiniLap® Instruments require fewer trocars and cause less trauma to the patient than traditional laparoscopic procedures.

Teleflex offers minimally invasive surgeons a full line of Weck® Access Devices, providing confidence, clarity and control during general and advanced laparoscopic procedures. The asymmetrically dilating Weck Vista® Optical Trocar features excellent light transmission through its transparent tip that enables clear visualization of tissue layers during entry. It incorporates ridges on the cannula providing excellent port stability particularly throughout extended procedures.

Teleflex’s newest addition – the Weck® EFx Shield® Fascial Closure System – is the only shielded port closure device, providing enhanced sharps protection for safe, uniform, and consistent fascial closure.
