Access and dissection
Spacemaker™ Pro access and dissector system
The Spacemaker™ Pro dissection balloon is indicated for patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery requiring tissue separation of the extraperitoneal space.
Description
The Spacemaker™ Pro access and dissector system consists of combinations of three dissectors and two balloon access devices integrated into a single, modular device. There are a total of five Spacemaker™ Pro device combinations:
- Blunt tip trocar (BTT) with round dissection balloon
- Blunt tip trocar (BTT) with oval dissection balloon
- Blunt tip trocar (BTT) with cylindrical dissection balloon
- Structural balloon trocar (SBT) with round dissection balloon
- Structural balloon trocar (SBT) with oval dissection balloon
Each combination also includes two 5 mm optical trocars for use during the laparoscopic procedure. The dissection balloons are available in three shapes (round, oval, or cylindrical) depending upon surgeon preference, patient anatomy, and procedural application.
The two balloon access devices are available in two configurations (a structural balloon trocar with a pre-shaped rigid balloon inflated with a bulb or a blunt tip trocar with a round elastic balloon inflated with a syringe).
Features
Optimized access (compared to Spacemaker™ Plus device)
- Provides easier, one-time access to surgical space, with a uniquely integrated system†,1
- Offers ability to operate in small spaces, with included low-profile 5mm optical trocars†,2
- Expands access to eligible patients, with balloons not made with latex†,1

Optimized dissection (compared to Spacemaker™ Plus device)1
- Enhances visualization, with anatomic balloons and clear cannulas,‡,1,2
- Creates the right space for each procedure, with anatomic balloons1,2
- Facilitates insertion and full balloon deployment, with tailored cannulas1,2
Optimized efficiency (compared to Spacemaker™ Plus device)
- Saves procedural steps with an integrated access and dissection solution§,1,2
- Adapts to your technique, with the option to use as a system or separately1,2
- Offers more choice in technique, while reducing product codes by up to 50%†

Overinflation of the dissection balloon may cause the balloon to rupture. Do not exceed 40 pumps. Verify mechanical and electrical compatibility of devices from different manufacturers prior to using them together in a procedure. Care must be exercised not to tunnel too deeply. Avoid forcing the balloon in a manner that may cause trauma to nearby organs and structures.
