Brunner Atruma Intestinal Clamp 26cm

Clinical Application

Designed for atraumatic temporary occlusion of intestinal segments during open gastrointestinal procedures. Common uses include small-bowel and colonic resections, anastomosis control, enterotomy management, stoma formation, and isolation of bowel during contaminated-field work. The atraumatic jaw interface allows secure occlusion while minimizing serosal and mucosal trauma, supporting better tissue handling and preparation for anastomosis.

Design & Configuration

The long 26 cm shank provides extended reach for deep abdominal exposures and allows the assistant or primary surgeon to place clamps well into the operative field without crowding the wound edge. A ratcheting handle provides reliable, adjustable locking to maintain tissue occlusion during suturing or staple firing. The atraumatic jaw geometry is intended to distribute compressive force across the bowel wall rather than pinch or shear, preserving tissue integrity and reducing the risk of ischemic injury at clamp sites.
