  • Surgical Instrument Catalogue
    Company Profile Dixons Surgical Instruments Ltd is a leading UK manufacturer of Surgical and Orthopaedic Instruments. We specialise in the manufacture of Precision Medical Devices and can offer a full service from Design, through Prototyping and on to Full Production Runs. The company was founded in November 1948 by Frank Dixon in Caledonian Road, London before moving to Leigh-On-Sea, Essex in 1956. Frank's son, John Dixon, joined the company in 1960 and trained in all aspects of the business. On the death of his Father in 1979, John took over as Managing Director. He was joined shortly after by his wife, Joan Dixon, who became the Financial Director. The company steadily expanded over the years and in 1989 it moved from the site in Leigh-On-Sea to a purpose built factory in Wickford, Essex, approximately 30 miles (50 Km) east of London. John and Joan's son, Jay Dixon, joined the company in 1990 and carried out a 5 year apprenticeship as a Surgical Instrument Maker. He then followed in his Father’s footsteps by training in all other aspects of the business, becoming Technical Director in 2004. In 2010 Jay Dixon was appointed Managing Director, while John Dixon moved into the role of Chairman. Joan Dixon continues to be the Financial Director. Today our Surgical and Orthopaedic Instruments are manufactured at our Wickford factory using a combination of the latest CNC controlled machines, along with the manual skills of our experienced craftsmen. This approach enables us to make Surgical and Orthopaedic Instruments in the most accurate and efficient way possible whilst still retaining that finishing touch required for truly excellent instruments.

  • Alternative – Universal Extended Video Mediastinoscopy with Distending, Narrow Blades Extended Video Mediastinoscopy with Distending, Tapered Blade System
    THOR 19 2.0 11/2020-E Alternative – Universal Extended video mediastinoscopy with distending, narrow blades Extended video mediastinoscopy with distending, tapered blade system By creating visibility and space, video mediastinoscopy allows the precise display and dissection of mediastinal structures and is therefore valuable for lymph node staging. Mediastinal staging as well as extended or complex endoscopic interventions, including video-assisted mediastinoscopic lymphadenectomy (VAMLA), can be performed with the aid of a distending video mediastinoscope system. KARL STORZ offers an atraumatic, easy-to-use, compact blade system with a holding arm device and an integrated irrigation and suction channel for this purpose. Two adjustment wheels in the handle allow distal distension of the blades and height adjustment in parallel. Combined with a matching HOPKINS® wide angle telescope, this autoclavable blade system provides the operating surgeon with an optimal overview of the working area. In conjunction with a holding arm with KSLOCK, bimanual work is also possible. The corresponding DCI® camera head IMAGE1 S™ D1 is operated via the modular KARL STORZ IMAGE1 S™ camera platform. Consequently, the system is likely to experience a renaissance in the coming years. We also offer instruments and other accessories that are compatible with the system. © KARL STORZ 96082019 THOR 19 2.0 11/2020 EW-E 2 Components of the KARL STORZ video mediastinoscopy system for extended mediastinoscopy Monitor 27" FULL HD Monitor TM220 Camera System IMAGE1 S CONNECT®

  • Mediastinoscopy: a Clinical Evaluation of 400 Consecutive Cases
    Thorax: first published as 10.1136/thx.24.5.585 on 1 September 1969. Downloaded from Thorax (1969), 24, 585. Mediastinoscopy: A clinical evaluation of 400 consecutive cases C. L. SARIN1 AND H. C. NOHL-OSER From the Thoracic Surgical Unit, Harefield Hospital, Harefield, Middlesex Mediastinoscopy was carried out in 400 cases, including 296 of bronchogenic carcinoma. At the time of presentation the new growth had already spread to involve the mediastinal lymph nodes in slightly more than 50% of these. The incidence of involvement was 76% in oat-cell and 35% in squamous-cell carcinoma. Non-resectability at thoracotomy was encountered in seven out of 120 patients. We advocate this procedure in every case of bronchogenic carcinoma which is considered operable on other counts. In patients in whom the mediastinal lymph nodes are invaded by growth we prefer radical radiotherapy to surgery, as the long-term survival of the two methods is comparable. This procedure may be the only source of positive histological proof of diagnosis, not only in carcinoma but in other types of intrathoracic disease. We believe that this procedure reduces the number of unnecessary exploratory thoracotomies. Carlens (1959) introduced diagnostic exploration sible. Biopsy in such cases can be obtained from tissues inside the thoracic inlet. in the of the superior mediastinum.

  • Experience with Video Mediastinoscopy at a Tertiary Cancer Center
    Oncology and Radiotherapy © 1 (50) 2020: 001-005 • RESEARCH ARTICLE From radiological assumption to pathological conviction: experience with video mediastinoscopy at a tertiary cancer center Nizamudheen MP, Abhay K Kattepur, Satheesan B Department of Surgical Oncology, Malabar Cancer Centre, Thalassery, Kerala, India Purpose: To describe the role of mediastinoscopy in the setting of mediastinaladenopathy secondary to pulmonary and non-pulmonary cancers. INTRODUCTION Methods: Retrospective analysis of patients undergoing video mediastinoscopy SUMMARY from November 2016 to December 2018 at tertiary cancer center for Cervical mediastinoscopy is a time tested tool for the mediastinaladenopathy from lung cancer and non-pulmonary cancers with invasive staging of mediastinal nodes. Standard cervical mediastinal nodes. mediastinoscopy helpsin approaching lymph node stations viz. Results: Twelve patients were included out of which 11 patients underwent right upper paratracheal (station 2R), right lower paratracheal diagnostic mediastinoscopy. The median age was 58 years. Seven patients had lung cancer. The mean number of nodes sampled was 10.5 (range: (4R), left upper paratracheal (2L), right lower paratracheal 2-28 nodes). Five patients had mediastinaladenopathy from non-pulmonary (4L) and sub-carinal (7). Hilar nodes (station 10) can also cancer like endometrial, oropharyngeal and Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy was noted in one patient. be accessed byexperienced surgeons, although it can be Conclusion: Mediastinoscopy serves as a valuable asset for staging of lung technically challenging. Overall, this procedure is accurate and cancer and in the assessment of suspicious nodes in the setting of non- carries minimal morbidity [1]. The role of mediastinoscopy pulmonary cancers. However, training and expertise is in the need of the hour to prevent redundancy of this valuable procedure.
