Clinical Application
Designed for precise handling of blood vessels during splanchnectomy and related abdominal procedures, this curved vessel forceps provides atraumatic grasping and control of small- to medium-sized vascular structures. It is used to isolate, temporarily occlude, and manipulate vessels prior to ligation or division, and is suited for open abdominal exposure where depth and angle of approach require a longer, curved instrument.
Design & Configuration
The curved geometry places the working tips at an angle to the shaft, allowing the surgeon to approach vessels along their axis without excessive tissue retraction. The 21 cm length balances reach into the abdominal cavity with tactile control at the hand. Fine vessel-style jaws minimize crush injury to delicate vascular tissue while providing reliable grip for dissection, ligation, or backbone support during suturing.
