Without stimulation of oocyte maturation and with the local anaesthesia as described herein between 6 and 15 oocyte can usually be retrieved.

Abstract

L'invention porte sur un système à double canule destiné notamment à l'extraction d'ovocytes. Le système à double canule comporte une canule extérieure (1) et une canule intérieure (2), la canule intérieure pouvant fonctionner librement à l'intérieur de la canule extérieure, la canule intérieure pouvant être retirée de la canule extérieure, et les deux canules comportant un embout qui est aiguisé et biseauté. L'embout de la canule intérieure du système à double canule se trouve de face lorsqu'on l'introduit dans l'anatomie d'un patient, et on utilise la canule intérieure pour localiser une ou plusieurs parties de l'anesthésie lorsque la canule interne est introduite par étapes dans l'anatomie du patient. L'embout de la canule extérieure suit derrière l'embout de la canule intérieure. On retire la canule intérieure avant que des cellules et/ou du liquide organique ne soient extraits par la canule extérieure.
