Clinical Application
Used primarily in hysterectomy and related gynecologic procedures to grasp and temporarily occlude uterine tissue, ligaments and vessels. The fully curved geometry facilitates access to deep pelvic anatomy for secure traction and atraumatic control of uterine arteries and parametrial tissue during both abdominal and vaginal approaches.
Design & Configuration
The fully curved (curved distal arc) configuration follows the anatomic axis of the uterus and pelvis, improving line-of-sight and access around tissue planes. Atraumatic jaw surfaces distribute pressure to minimize crushing injury to delicate uterine and cervical tissue while providing a secure hold for ligation and dissection steps. The 20.5 cm length balances reach into the pelvic cavity with tactile control at the surgeon's hand.
