Clinical Application
Designed to provide atraumatic occlusion and secure handling of the ureter during urologic procedures. Common uses include temporary occlusion to prevent urinary leakage during ureteral repair or reconstruction, controlled isolation of the ureter during dissection for stone extraction or ureterolithotomy, and exposure/handling during retroperitoneal or pelvic approaches. The instrument allows surgeons to control the ureter lumen without crushing delicate tissue.
Design & Configuration
The double angled jaw geometry places the occluding surfaces in a lateral orientation relative to the shaft, permitting access around adjacent structures and along curved ureteral courses. The 21 cm overall length provides extended reach into the pelvis and retroperitoneum while maintaining tactile control. A locking mechanism on the handle permits sustained occlusion with consistent pressure, reducing the need for continuous manual force and improving operative efficiency.
