Overholt-Geissendorfer Fcps 27cm Fig.3

Clinical Application

Designed for procedures requiring extended reach and controlled, atraumatic grasping in confined or curved anatomy. The instrument’s long, curved shaft and figure‑3 jaw geometry facilitate blunt dissection, secure tissue handling and foreign‑body or polyp retrieval in ENT, esophageal/airway and select thoracic procedures where a protected, low‑profile tip and extended working length are needed.

Design & Configuration

The figure‑3 curvature provides an anatomic approach path that follows natural luminal contours, allowing surgeons to access deep or angled fields without excessive hand intrusion. Ring handles and a conventional box‑lock provide familiar tactile feedback and rotational control for precise positioning. The tapered jaw profile is intended to concentrate contact for a secure grasp while minimizing crush on delicate tissues.
