Clinical Application
Designed for controlled grasping and retraction of peritoneal tissue and other soft fascial layers during abdominal procedures. The 1x2 tooth jaw provides a secure purchase for tissue handling during dissection, suture placement, and wound closure. Common applications include general abdominal surgery, gynecologic procedures, hernia repair, and colorectal work where firm yet localized traction is required.
Design & Configuration
The curved shaft improves approach angles when working deep within the abdominal cavity or pelvis, allowing the surgeon to obtain a parallel or oblique line of pull without excessive wrist angulation. The 1x2 tooth configuration combines a single opposing tooth with two mating teeth to lock tissue between the jaws, reducing slippage during traction or knot-tying. The 20 cm length balances reach with tactile control for precise manipulation of peritoneal edges.
