Mayo Hegar Needle Holder cvd 22cm

Clinical Application

Curved Mayo Hegar needle holders are a standard instrument for securing and manipulating suture needles during tissue approximation in open surgical procedures. The 22 cm curved configuration is well suited for reaching into deeper wounds or working around anatomic contours while maintaining a stable needle orientation. Common applications include general surgery, gynecologic and obstetric procedures, orthopedics, and soft-tissue closure where reliable, heavy-duty needle control is required.

Design & Configuration

The curved shaft provides an angle of approach that improves visibility and access in confined or deep surgical fields, allowing the surgeon to orient the needle without having to change hand position. Short, stout jaws concentrate gripping force near the needle shaft for secure control during placement and knot tying. A positive locking mechanism maintains a consistent hold on the needle to reduce slippage during suturing and when tensioning suture material.
