Clinical Application
Designed for open gynecologic procedures, this hysterectomy forceps provides secure grasping and occlusion of uterine tissue, vascular pedicles and ligatures during total and subtotal hysterectomy, oophorectomy and related pelvic surgery. The curved-on-flat jaw geometry permits atraumatic compression across broader tissue surfaces, aiding hemostasis and controlled manipulation of pedicles and ligatures.
Design & Configuration
The curved shaft places the flat jaw surface into alignment with pelvic anatomy, improving line-of-sight and reach around the uterus and adnexa while the flat contact area distributes compressive force across tissue to reduce point pressure. This configuration helps surgeons obtain stable, low-slip grip on ligatures and vessels and facilitates placement and removal within confined operative fields.
