Clinical Application
This suction-assisted ligator is intended for endoanal placement of elastic ligatures on internal hemorrhoidal tissue. The integrated suction head facilitates atraumatic capture of the hemorrhoidal cushion into the applicator chamber prior to band deployment, improving accuracy of placement during in-office or ambulatory rubber-band ligation procedures. The Teflon loader provides low-friction delivery of bands to reduce snagging and mucosal trauma.
Design & Configuration
The 18.5 cm handheld configuration offers sufficient reach and tactile control in the anal canal while enabling direct visualization through an anoscope or rectal speculum. The combination of a suction head and a dedicated Teflon band loader streamlines the sequence of tissue capture, band loading, and deployment—minimizing repeated instrument passes and improving procedural efficiency in treatment of internal hemorrhoids.
