Clinical Application
Designed for precise placement and handling of ligatures during open surgical procedures. The fine jaws are intended to capture suture and pass ligatures around vessels, pedicles and small tubular structures with minimal tissue trauma. The curved shaft and extended length facilitate work in deep or narrow operative fields, making the instrument useful in general, vascular, gynecologic and ENT procedures where controlled ligation is required.
Design & Configuration
The curved geometry permits a wrapping action around anatomical structures and improves access to sites that are difficult to reach with straight instruments. A 23 cm shaft provides added reach for deeper cavities while maintaining tactile feedback at the tip for accurate suture placement. The fine, slender jaw profile helps position and hold suture material securely without bulk, enabling efficient passing of ligatures and knot tying in confined spaces.
