Clinical Application
Designed to occlude and secure the cystic/gall ducts and small vascular structures during biliary and general surgical procedures. The 20 cm length provides extended reach for deeper operative fields in open abdominal cases while allowing precise control for tissue handling, temporary hemostasis, and preparation for definitive ligation or clip placement.
Design & Configuration
Ring handles with a ratchet-lock mechanism permit progressive closure and hands-free maintenance of clamping pressure. The elongated shank increases working reach and distance from the operator's hands to the operative site, improving access and visibility in deeper wounds. Serrated jaws deliver a secure grip on ductal tissue and small vessels to minimize slippage during traction, dissection, or ligation steps.
