Lovelace Lung Grasp Fcps 20cm

Clinical Application

Designed for atraumatic handling of lung parenchyma during thoracic procedures, this instrument is used to grasp, retract and stabilize pulmonary tissue in open thoracotomy and limited-access thoracic cases. Its 20 cm working length provides reach and control for procedures such as lobectomy, wedge resection, pleural inspection, and intraoperative tissue manipulation where gentle, secure purchase on fragile lung tissue is required.

Design & Configuration

The long, slender shaft provides access into the thoracic cavity while keeping the surgeon’s hands clear of the field. The jaw geometry is optimized to distribute pressure across the contact surface, minimizing localized crush and reducing tissue trauma when mobilizing or retracting lung tissue. Ergonomic hand controls permit precise fine adjustments and secure handling during delicate dissection or stapling maneuvers.
