The Olympus A22061A Working Element, Passive Action, is a professional-grade resectoscope working element that translates the surgeon’s manual thumb and finger movements into controlled advancement and retraction of loop, knife, or roller electrodes around a 4 mm telescope. It is engineered for transurethral urological procedures, providing precise mechanical control of monopolar resection and coagulation when paired with compatible Olympus outer sheaths and the UES-40 or similar electrosurgical units.
Key features
- Passive-action mechanism in which the surgeon directly moves the electrode carriage, offering tactile feedback and fine control during resection.
- Compatible with Olympus 4 mm rigid telescopes and matching OES/OES Pro resectoscope sheaths used in TURP and bladder tumor resections.
- Accepts a range of resectoscope electrodes (loops, needles, roller balls) for cutting and coagulation in monopolar setups.
- Robust stainless-steel construction designed for repeated sterilization and long service life in high-volume urology environments.
- Part of the Olympus urology resection system, allowing integration with standard Olympus light cables, scopes, and electrosurgical generators for a complete solution.
