DeBakey Atraumatic Tissue Fcps 2mm ang. 20cm

Clinical Application

Designed for atraumatic handling of vessels and delicate soft tissues, this angled DeBakey tissue forceps is used where a firm but gentle grip is required without compressive trauma. Common applications include vascular dissection and anastomosis, cardiothoracic exposure, microvascular and transplant procedures, and fine tissue manipulation during general surgery. The 2 mm jaw width offers a balance between secure purchase and minimal tissue crush, making it suitable for small-to-medium caliber vessels and delicate tissue planes.

Design & Configuration

The angled shaft geometry improves line-of-sight and access in confined or deep operative fields and allows the surgeon to approach vessels and suture lines at more ergonomic angles. The DeBakey atraumatic jaw pattern uses longitudinal serrations that provide distributed grip along the tissue length rather than focal teeth, reducing the risk of puncture or crush injury. The 20 cm overall length offers reach for deeper cavities while maintaining tactile control for precise manipulation.
