Clinical Application
Designed for use in open gynecologic procedures, this atraumatic hysterectomy forceps is intended to grasp, occlude and provide traction on uterine vessels, ligaments and soft-tissue pedicles during abdominal and vaginal hysterectomy. The atraumatic jaw surfaces reduce crush injury to delicate pelvic tissues while the locking mechanism maintains secure occlusion during suture ligation or vessel division.
Design & Configuration
The 26 cm overall length gives extended reach into the pelvic cavity while maintaining tactile control at the shaft. Atraumatic jaw geometry distributes clamping pressure to minimize localized tissue trauma, and a ratchet-style locking mechanism allows the clinician to set and maintain the desired grip without continuous manual force. The instrument's slim profile and long shank facilitate access to deep or confined operative fields commonly encountered in hysterectomy.
