Clinical Application
Designed for atraumatic grasping and controlled elevation of the peritoneum and adjacent serosal tissues during open abdominal and pelvic procedures. Common uses include mobilization of peritoneal flaps, exposure of intra-abdominal structures, tissue retraction during bowel or gynecologic surgeries, and assisting with layer-by-layer closure where delicate handling of the peritoneum reduces the risk of tearing.
Design & Configuration
The straight 21 cm shaft provides a balance of reach and tactile control suitable for most open procedures without excessive instrument length. The peritoneum-oriented jaw geometry is intended to distribute pressure across the contact surface to minimize tissue trauma while maintaining a reliable grip. The straight configuration facilitates alignment with the operative field for controlled elevation and retraction of serosal layers.
