Clinical Application
Long, curved lithotomy forceps used to grasp, retract, deliver, or remove tissue, dressings and small foreign bodies during procedures performed in the lithotomy position. The 26 cm length provides reach into the vaginal canal, deep perineal wounds and pelvic cavity when working through specula or narrow operative fields in gynecology, urology and proctology.
Design & Configuration
The curved shaft geometry reorients the tip relative to the operator’s hand to improve access around anatomic curves and maintain a clear line of sight. The length reduces the need for deep manual insertion, allowing the assistant or primary surgeon to manipulate tissue at depth while the handle remains outside the operative field. A firm, anatomically balanced profile aids controlled grasping and atraumatic retraction in confined pelvic exposures.
