O' Shaughnessy Dissecting/Ligature Fcps 22cm

Clinical Application

Designed for precise tissue handling and ligature management, these O' Shaughnessy dissecting/ligature forceps allow surgeons to grasp delicate structures, create and maintain exposure in narrow operative corridors, and pass or secure ligatures around small vessels and tissue pedicles. The instrument is appropriate for general surgery, vascular procedures, gynecology, ENT and other procedures where controlled, atraumatic handling and secure temporary retention of sutures or vessel loops are required.

Design & Configuration

The 22 cm length provides reach into deeper wounds and confined spaces while maintaining tactile feedback. Fine dissecting jaws concentrate contact force to allow secure engagement of ligatures and small tissue without excess compression. A locking (ratchet) handle holds the jaws closed to maintain tension on a suture or to retain tissue hands‑free during knot tying and vessel ligation. The slim shaft geometry facilitates maneuvering around structures and through tight operative windows.
