Mixter Hemostatic Bronchus Fcps 15.5cm

Clinical Application

This right-angle hemostatic forceps is designed for controlled clamping, blunt dissection, and vessel/bronchus control in thoracic procedures. Its geometry facilitates encircling and occluding bronchial stumps, segmental bronchi, and small pulmonary vessels during lobectomy, bronchoplasty, mediastinal dissection, and sleeve resections. The instrument is useful for passing around structures where a straight clamp cannot be safely positioned and for securing hemostasis prior to division or stapling.

Design & Configuration

The 90-degree (Mixter) angulation allows the jaws to approach anatomy from the side, enabling circumferential placement around bronchi and vessels in confined thoracic spaces. A narrow, angled tip helps the surgeon negotiate around tissue planes and between lobes while minimizing collateral tissue displacement. The ratchet handle provides reliable progressive locking for sustained clamping, and serrated jaw surfaces deliver secure grip for hemostasis and tissue control during manipulation or stapling.
