Halstead Mosquito Fcps cvd 16cm

Clinical Application

Small, fine-point hemostatic forceps designed to occlude and hold small vessels and thin tissue planes. The instrument is used to achieve temporary hemostasis, provide atraumatic grasping of small structures, and assist with suture placement or ligation during delicate procedures in general, pediatric, plastic, and vascular surgery.

Design & Configuration

The curved geometry places the fine jaws at an angle to the shaft, improving visibility and access within confined operative fields. A ratcheted handle and box-lock pivot provide controlled clamping pressure and secure tissue capture without the need for continuous manual force. The short, tapered jaw profile allows precise placement on small-caliber vessels and permits atraumatic handling of delicate tissues.
