Clinical Application
Designed for controlled handling of dense soft tissue and fascial edges, the Bonney-style 1x2 tooth forceps provide a focused hold for traction, suture placement, and tissue retraction. The 1x2 tooth pattern gives a secure purchase on thicker tissue where a broader atraumatic pad would slip, making this instrument useful in general surgery, gynecologic procedures, and other operative settings requiring firm, reliable grasping.
Design & Configuration
The 1x2 tooth configuration (one opposing two teeth) concentrates contact force to reduce slippage while minimizing tissue crush compared with larger multi-tooth patterns. As a thumb (spring) forceps, the instrument enables single-hand manipulation and rapid release without a locking mechanism, which surgeons commonly prefer for fine positioning and passing tissue between instruments. The 18 cm length balances reach and control for intra-abdominal and pelvic work without excessive bulk at the operative field.
