Clinical Application
Designed for atraumatic handling and placement of ligature material around vessels, pedicles and tissue bundles. The instrument is used to pass, position and temporarily hold suture or ligature ties in procedures where precise control of suture is required—commonly employed in general, vascular, gynecologic and small‑procedures where access is confined or the operative field is deep.
Design & Configuration
The curved geometry provides improved access and line of sight when working around structures or inside narrow cavities. The Crafoord‑Sellors pattern offers a slim, elongated profile that facilitates controlled delivery of suture while minimizing tissue interference. Length and curvature combine to give reach and maneuverability for encircling pedicles or feeding ligature material through limited exposure.
