For uninhibited laparoscopic access, the Apple-Hunt Cannula/Trocar provides greater instrument maneuverability while maintaining an airtight seal -with no bulky external valves, fittings, or housings. The ergonomic trocar design is simple to use and features a smooth cannula/trocar transition for easier sleeve insertion and reduced risk of patient injury.
