Ligature Catcher 1.5mm, 26cm

Clinical Application

This instrument is intended to grasp, retrieve and secure ligatures, suture ends and small ties in deep or confined operative fields where precise capture is required. The fine 1.5 mm capture tip allows surgeons and assistants to retrieve suture tags after knot tying, pull ligatures through tissue planes, and control suture material during vessel ligation or soft-tissue approximation. Typical use includes general, vascular, gynecologic and other procedures requiring precise suture management in narrow working spaces.

Design & Configuration

The 26 cm shaft provides extended reach to access deeper cavities while maintaining tactile control. A narrow 1.5 mm capture tip concentrates grasping force onto a small area of suture material for secure retention without bulk that would obstruct visualization. The slender profile and precise jaw geometry minimize tissue disruption and make the instrument useful for fine-patient maneuvers where maneuverability and a low-profile tip are clinically advantageous.
