Zusammenfassung:Disclosed herein is a cannula and/or medical instrument accessory configured for providing localized insufflation or venting of gases with respect to a surgical cavity of a patient (such as the pneumoperitoneum) and allowing insertion of medical instruments into the surgical cavity through the cannula. A medical instrument accessory such as a cannula and/or medical instrument accessory can be used for localizing insufflation or venting of gas or fluid near operating end of a medical instrument. The medical instrument accessory can comprise a body mountable over at least a portion of a medical instrument shaft, the body having an inner lumen, proximal end and distal end, the distal end comprising an opening, wherein the distal end is arranged in use at or adjacent an operating end of the medical instrument. An outer wall of the medical instrument shaft and lumen can define a gas flow path, wherein as or fluid is released or introduced into the gas flow path at the distal end and adjacent the end of the medical instrument shaft.
