Mathieu Needle Holder grooved jaw 14cm

Clinical Application

Designed for precision control of suturing needles during superficial and minor procedures, this instrument is commonly used for skin and subcutaneous closures, minor office-based procedures, and plastic or dermatologic repairs where fine needle handling and rapid single-handed operation are needed. The grooved jaw stabilizes the needle shaft to reduce slippage when placing interrupted or running sutures with small- to medium-sized curved needles.

Design & Configuration

The Mathieu pattern provides a compact jaw profile with a spring-action handle and an integrated locking catch that enables quick one-handed placement and release of the needle. The 14 cm length balances working reach with fingertip control, giving good visibility at the incision edge while preserving leverage for controlled needle passage. The grooved jaw geometry seats the needle shaft and helps maintain orientation during driven passes and knot tying.
