Spencerwells Artery Fcps S/J cvd 18cm

Clinical Application

This curved Spencer‑Wells artery forceps is designed to provide reliable vessel control during soft-tissue dissection and haemostasis. Its geometry and locking mechanism allow the instrument to clamp small-to-medium sized arteries and veins, secure suture material, or hold bleeding points while the surgeon ligates or cauterizes. The curved profile aids access in confined or deep operative fields where a straight instrument would limit visualization or hand positioning.

Design & Configuration

The curved jaw directs the working tips into the surgical plane, improving sight lines and allowing the operator to approach vessels at an angle that facilitates secure occlusion. A robust box lock and ratchet maintain consistent clamping pressure without continuous manual force, enabling hands-free haemostasis and controlled tissue handling. The 18 cm length balances reach into deeper pockets with tactile control for fine manipulation.
