Clinical Application
Designed for precise microvascular dissection and vessel isolation, this angled blunt micro vessel knife is used to tease, separate and expose small-caliber arteries and veins prior to ligation, clipping, bipolar coagulation or anastomosis. It is appropriate for use under magnification in microsurgery and delicate fields such as neurosurgery, otolaryngology, ophthalmic, plastic/reconstructive and peripheral vascular procedures where controlled blunt dissection and fine tissue handling are required.
Design & Configuration
The angled geometry provides an improved approach vector to vessels located in deep or confined operative corridors, allowing the surgeon to access the target without repositioning surrounding tissue. The blunt tip minimizes the risk of inadvertent transection when teasing tissue planes and is intended to separate and elevate vessels safely before definitive division or hemostatic control. The 19 cm overall length affords increased reach for deeper exposures while maintaining tactile feedback for fine manipulations.
