Main Description
The Pediport is a single-use 5.5 mm locking trocar designed for pediatric laparoscopic access. Pediatric abdominal walls and working spaces are smaller, so port diameter and fixation behavior are scaled accordingly. The locking feature secures the cannula at the chosen depth, important where small movements have outsized effects. It is supplied sterile, five per box as listed. The port serves pediatric general surgery and allied minimally invasive work in children's services.
Features and Benefits
- Pediatric scale – A 5.5 mm port respects small anatomy instead of forcing adult sizes.
- Locking fixation – Depth locking keeps the port stable in thin abdominal walls.
- Single use sterile – Fresh, sharp entry for every pediatric case.

Why Choose This Product
Children's services cannot substitute adult trocars safely by habit. The dedicated pediatric port belongs on their shelf. Locking depth control matters more, not less, in small patients.
- Right sized access – The pediatric diameter is the differentiator against the adult port range.
- Depth security – Locking fixation prevents in-and-out migration in thin tissue.
- Dedicated stock – Having the pediatric port in the catalog supports children's case scheduling.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why not use a standard 5 mm adult trocar?
Pediatric anatomy differs in wall thickness, cavity size and instrument length relationships. The Pediport's 5.5 mm locking design is made for that anatomy and secures depth in thin walls.
How many come in a box?
The configuration is supplied five per box as listed, sterile and single use. That count covers a typical multi-port pediatric case from one box.
Is this device sterile and single use?
Yes. It is supplied sterile for single use unless its label states otherwise, and it must not be reprocessed or reused. Check the package integrity and expiry before every case.
How should this device be stored?
Store it in its original packaging under normal room conditions away from heat sources and moisture. Rotate stock by expiry date and quarantine any unit with damaged packaging.
What if a configuration I need is not listed?
