Adson Needle Holder 18cm

Clinical Application

This Adson needle holder is designed to provide precise control of suture needles during delicate soft-tissue approximation and skin closure. Its short, finely serrated jaws enable secure needle engagement for accurate placement and rotation of needles in procedures such as wound closure, closures in plastic and ENT cases, and other operative settings that require fine instrument control.

Design & Configuration

The instrument features a traditional finger-ring handle with a ratchet locking mechanism and a box-lock joint to ensure predictable, repeatable tactile feedback and sustained grip on the needle. The 18 cm length balances reach and control—longer than pocket-sized holders for improved access into superficial cavities while maintaining the fine tip geometry needed for delicate work. Short, closely opposed jaws reduce needle slippage and allow controlled torque during suture placement.
