Potts Coarctation Fcps Atraumatic str 22cm

Clinical Application

Designed for thoracic and cardiovascular procedures where controlled temporary occlusion of large vessels is required, particularly coarctation repair. The atraumatic jaw interface preserves vessel intima while providing secure occlusion, making this instrument suitable for pediatric and adult vascular work during open repairs and reconstructive steps where minimizing endothelial trauma is essential.

Design & Configuration

The straight geometry and 22 cm working length deliver reach and direct-line access to mediastinal and thoracic vessels without excessive shaft angulation. Atraumatic jaw surfaces distribute clamping force over a broader area to reduce focal pressure and risk of intimal injury. The instrument’s locking handle allows the surgeon to maintain consistent occlusion without continuous manual compression, freeing an assistant and improving field stability during anastomosis or vessel repair.
