Surgical device including a cannula having a combination track

A surgical device, comprising:

• a camera device;
• a tissue manipulation device including an acting feature and a sliding feature, the tissue manipulation device being separate and independent from the camera device;
• and
• a cannula comprising:
• a base member at a proximal terminal end;
• a sidewall connected to the base member and extending in an axial direction from the proximal terminal end to a distal terminal end;
• and
• a bore extending in the axial direction defined by the base member and the sidewall, the sidewall further defining an opening into the bore between axially-extending edges of the sidewall;
• wherein the base member includes a combination track including a first section and a second section, the first section being a circular opening through the base member into the bore and the second section located above the bore and being an opening into an action area outside of the bore and radially between the edges of the sidewall, the first section and the second section being interconnected to form a single opening of the combination track, the second section of the combination track extending between axial end faces of the base member and defining an opening between a radially inner edge of a wall of the base member and a radially outer edge of the wall of the base member,
• wherein the combination track slidably receives the camera device through the first section and into the bore and slidably receives the tissue manipulation device through the second section and into the action area via the sliding feature such that the camera device is positioned below the tissue manipulation device and the camera device and the tissue manipulation device are independently moveable relative to each other within the cannula, and
• the base member includes a first mating feature having at least one protuberance configured to engage with a second mating feature on the tissue manipulation device such that the tissue manipulation device is freely slidable within the base member, the at least one protuberance being axially defined within the base member and positioned away from the action area.
