Clinical Application
Designed for deep suturing in confined operative fields, this long needle holder facilitates secure needle control during vaginal cuff closure, perineal repair, uterine and pelvic procedures, and other gynecologic or obstetric suturing tasks. The extended shaft provides reach into the pelvis while allowing the operator to maintain a comfortable hand position at the wound margin.
Design & Configuration
The instrument's elongated, ratcheted design and ring handles provide tactile feedback and precise control for single-handed needle passage and knot tying in deep or restricted anatomical spaces. Short, robust jaws concentrate gripping force at the needle contact point to reduce slippage, while cross-serrations increase purchase on suture needles without crushing the needle body.
