Dual-deployment suture placement & anesthesia delivery appliance and related devices and methods

A dual-deployment suture placement and injection device comprising:

• a cannular housing insertable into a surgical port of a determined width, the housing comprising:
• a proximal portion, a distal portion, and longitudinal axis extending therebetween;
• and
• a suture guide mechanism movably coupled to the distal portion of the cannular housing arranged for movement between a deployed position and a non-deployed position, the suture guide mechanism defining a first receptor port, a second receptor port, and a suture passage therebetween, the first and second receptor ports disposed on opposite side portions of the suture guide mechanism and the cannular housing in the deployed position wherein the suture passage extends across a width of the cannular housing in the deployed position;
• a first channel guide within the housing comprising a proximal end, a distal end, and a guided suture path segment therebetween, the first channel guide movable between a retracted position oriented for passage through the surgical port and a deployed position where a portion of the first channel guide extends from the housing to the first receptor port;
• a second channel guide within the housing comprising a proximal end, a distal end, and a guided suture path segment therebetween, the second channel guide movable between a retracted position oriented for passage through the surgical port and a deployed position wherein a portion of the second channel guide extends from the housing to the second receptor port;
• a third channel guide within the housing comprising a proximal end, a distal end, and an injection path segment therebetween, the third channel guide movable between a retracted position oriented for passage through the surgical port and a deployed position wherein a portion of the third channel guide extends from a first side of the housing to a first injection position;
• a fourth channel guide within the housing comprising a proximal end, a distal end, and an injection path segment therebetween, the fourth channel guide movable between a retracted position oriented for passage through the port and a deployed position wherein a portion of the fourth channel guide extends from a second side of the housing opposite from the first side to a second injection position;
• and
• a channel guide deployment mechanism attached to the housing and each channel guide;
• wherein actuation of the channel guide deployment mechanism deploys the first, second, third and fourth channel guides to each of the respective deployed positions.
