Clinical Application
Designed for gynecologic procedures, this long, straight hysterectomy forceps is used to grasp uterine tissue, ligaments, and pedicles during open and vaginal hysterectomy. Its length and straight geometry provide reach into the deep pelvis for traction, exposure, and controlled manipulation of soft tissue while assisting in dissection and vessel ligation.
Design & Configuration
The straight configuration delivers a direct line of traction and alignment with the operative field, which is advantageous when delivering the uterus or controlling broad ligament tissue. The instrument follows the standard surgical forceps pattern with a box lock and ring-handle design and a locking mechanism to maintain secure tissue hold without continuous manual tension. These features combine to improve control during steps that require sustained retraction or clamping.
