`
`Echelon™60 delivers a true 60mm staple line, enhanced compression, reduced force-to-close, and
`a wide jaw aperture. With the introduction of the gold cartridge in 2005, and the wide selection of car-
`tridges, the Echelon™60 delivers appropriate staple formation on thin through thick tissue. All
`cartridges—white, blue, gold, and green—fit down a 12mm port* and provide six rows of staples.
`* Fits down all Ethicon Endo-Surgery 12mm trocars

`
`Benefit
`
`1. The precision-machined anvil delivers system-wide compression to exu-
` date fluid from the tissue and prepares the tissue for a uniform staple line
`2. The 3-Point gap control ensures alignment and calibration throughout the
` 60mm staple line for consistent staple formation and hemostasis
`
`1. Enables tissue grasping and manipulation
`2. Assists in providing consistent staple formation in a wide range of tissue
` thickness, particularly at distal end
`Precisely designed and honed to efficiently cut through tissue and machined
`from 400-series steel for durability
`Prevents knife blade from moving forward when cartridge is not loaded or
`improperly loaded
`Provides a laparoscopic view of where knife blade is located relative to mm
`markings on the cartridge channel

`
`Positioned between blue and green cartridge for hemostasis on thick tissue1
`
`Perceived staple line security and hemostasis
`1. Provides minimally invasive access
`2. 12mm ENDOPATH® XCEL trocars eliminate the need for fascial suturing—
` reducing fascial suture pain, saving procedure time and costs and reducing
` fascial closure related complications3
`Provides a robust, single-point connection with knife assembly
`Single Sled
`Allows for easy insertion
`Stepped Nose
`1 Tissue compressible to 1.8mm for gold cartridge
`2 Fits down all Ethicon Endo-Surgery 12mm trocars
`3 Clinical situations compromising fascial reapproximation (such as port site enlargement, excessive manipulation or trocar reinsertion) may, based on surgeon’s clinical
` judgment, dictate fascial closure.
