Clinical Application
Provides a long, left-curved, sharp-point needle intended for ligation and suture placement where reach and an oblique approach are required. Commonly used for vessel ligation and ligature placement in general, vascular, gynecologic, and deep-cavity procedures where access is limited and a left-oriented curvature improves the needle trajectory.
Design & Configuration
The left curvature orients the needle tip toward the left side of the working field when held in a standard grip, allowing the operator to control the arc of passage through tissue and to approach vessels or structures from an advantageous angle. The sharp point facilitates controlled penetration of tougher tissues with minimal deflection. At 20 cm overall length, the geometry offers extended reach for deeper sites while maintaining tactile feedback for precise placement of ligatures.
Instrument Specifications
- Instrument type: Ligature needle
- Pattern: Curved to left
- Tip: Sharp point for cutting penetration
- Length: 20 cm
- Primary use: Vessel ligation and deep-cavity suturing
- Construction: Surgical-grade stainless steel
- Reusable: Designed for repeated sterilization and clinical use
Material & Construction
Constructed from surgical-grade stainless steel to provide corrosion resistance and durability required for repeated sterilization cycles. The cutting-style sharp point is precision ground to facilitate consistent penetration and smooth passage through tissue. Surfaces are finished to minimize tissue drag and allow controlled needle handling.
Quality & Compliance
Manufactured by FDA-registered OEM facilities and produced under strict quality control standards.
Brand Comparison
Comparable in form and function to equivalent instruments offered by major US medical suppliers.
