Overholt-Geissendorfer Fcps 27cm Fig.4

Clinical Application

This long 27 cm figure-4 forceps is designed for controlled, atraumatic grasping and blunt dissection in deep or confined operative fields. Its geometry is suited to secure manipulation of tubular structures, placement or retrieval of sutures and drains, and tissue handling during thoracic, abdominal and pelvic procedures where extended reach and a stable grasp are required.

Design & Configuration

The figure-4 jaw pattern provides opposing contact surfaces that increase grip stability while distributing pressure to reduce focal trauma. The extended 27 cm shaft gives access to deep cavities without overstretching the surgeon’s hand, enabling precise positional control in narrow operative corridors. The Overholt-Geissendorfer profile is selected where a narrow working tip and dependable hold are priorities.
