Liddle Aortic clamp 27cm

Clinical Application

Provides rapid, secure temporary occlusion of the aorta and other large-caliber vessels in open cardiovascular and vascular procedures. Common uses include proximal control during open abdominal aortic aneurysm repair, thoracic aortic surgery, and certain cardiothoracic operations where a reliable cross-clamp is required. The length allows access to deep operative fields while maintaining hand clearance for the operating team. This instrument is intended for controlled, temporary vascular occlusion rather than permanent vessel ligation.

Design & Configuration

The long-shank design gives the surgeon extended reach into the mediastinum or retroperitoneum without encroaching on the operative field. Broad, aortic-style jaws distribute clamping force over a larger surface area to achieve secure occlusion of large vessels while minimizing focal tissue compression. The handle and shank geometry provide tactile control and leverage for reliable placement and removal in confined anatomical spaces.
