Disposable cartridge with adhesive for use with a stapling device

A surgical stapling device for clamping and stapling tissue comprising:

• a) a shaft defining a longitudinal axis;
• b) a first clamping jaw and a second clamping jaw extending from a distal end of the shaft to clamp tissue therebetween, the second clamping jaw movable from an open position for the reception of tissue to a closed position to clamp tissue between the first clamping jaw and the second clamping jaw;
• c) a removable cartridge mounted in the first clamping jaw and having a tissue clamping surface thereon, the removable cartridge comprising:
• i) a plurality of staples and staple ejection members therein,
• ii) a fluid, and
• iii) a cartridge dispensing system for dispensing the fluid from the clamping surface of the removable cartridge, the cartridge dispensing system having at least one rigid chamber defined by the removable cartridge and configured to be inaccessible to the staples and staple ejection members, the at least one rigid chamber being further configured with a substantially rigid rotatable member therein configured to pump fluid from the rigid chamber, the cartridge dispensing system further comprising a plurality of rigid fluid passageways operably connecting the at least one rigid chamber with the tissue clamping surface, the at least one rigid chamber and the plurality of rigid fluid passageways containing the fluid therein stored in direct contact with the removable cartridge and the substantially rigid rotatable member, and separate from contact with the plurality of staples and staple ejection members, wherein the substantially rigid rotatable member is rotatable about a rotation axis, wherein the rotation axis is parallel to the longitudinal axis;
• d) a firing system within the surgical stapling device having a translating member, wherein the translating member is translatable along a direction that is parallel to the longitudinal axis, wherein the translating member operably couples with the staples and staple ejection members when the firing system is actuated to eject the plurality of staples from the removable cartridge into clamped tissue and form the staples against the second clamping jaw, wherein the substantially rigid rotatable member is removably coupled with the translating member by a dog clutch mechanism;
• and
• e) a fluid application system is at least partially contained within the shaft and operably coupling with the substantially rigid rotatable member in the removable cartridge and with the translating member when the removable cartridge is mounted in the first clamping jaw, wherein the fluid application system is operable to convert longitudinal translation of the translating member into rotation of the substantially rigid rotatable member about the axis of rotation, wherein when the fluid application system is actuated, the substantially rigid rotatable member of the cartridge dispensing system is rotated about the rotation axis in response to translation of the translating member along the direction that is parallel to the longitudinal axis and fluid is dispensed from the removable cartridge onto tissue.
