Overholt-Geissendorfer Fcps 21cm Fig.7

Clinical Application

Long, slim forceps with a Figure 7 tip provide controlled tissue handling and blunt dissection in deep or narrow operative fields. The 21 cm length extends reach into thoracic, abdominal, pelvic, and other confined spaces where precise, atraumatic grasping of vessels, ducts, or soft tissue is required. The angled Figure 7 tip facilitates off-axis access and improved visualization when working around structures or within wound tunnels.

Design & Configuration

The instrument's extended shaft and Figure 7 tip geometry are designed to combine reach with an angled approach capability. This geometry allows the operator to engage tissue from a lateral or oblique trajectory without excessive manipulation of surrounding anatomy. A slim profile reduces obstruction in the field and aids in controlled insertion through retractors or narrow openings.
