Clinical Application
Lane's 1x2T tissue forceps are intended to provide a secure mechanical grip on dense or fibrous soft tissues—such as fascia, tendon, subcutaneous tissue, and bowel—during tissue manipulation, retraction, and placement of sutures. The interlocking 1x2 tooth tip offers positive purchase for handling tissue where slippage could compromise exposure or wound control, making them useful in general surgery, abdominal procedures, orthopedic soft-tissue work, and other procedures requiring firm tissue control.
Design & Configuration
The 1x2 tooth configuration features a single projecting tooth on one jaw opposing a pair of teeth on the other jaw to create an interlocking grip. This geometry concentrates contact points to prevent rotation or slippage of tissue while minimizing the need for excessive compression. At 20 cm overall length, the instrument provides additional reach into deeper cavities while preserving tactile feedback and fine control at the tip—important for precise placement of sutures or secure retraction during dissection.
