Kocher Intestinal Fcps str 28cm

Clinical Application

Designed for general and gastrointestinal surgery, this Kocher intestinal forceps provides a firm, locking grip on intestinal tissue, mesentery, and other resilient soft tissues during resection, anastomosis, exposure, and temporary hemostasis. The traumatic Kocher jaw pattern offers secure tissue control when a strong, non-slip hold is required. Because the jaws are intentionally traumatic, the instrument is not recommended for handling fragile or easily crushed tissue.

Design & Configuration

The straight shaft geometry offers direct access and control in open abdominal fields and deeper cavities. The Kocher-style serrated jaws with a locking ratchet deliver reliable clamping force and prevent slippage under tension, aiding surgeons during dissection, holding, or traction maneuvers. At 28 cm total length, the balance between reach and tactile control suits most open intestinal and general surgery tasks while keeping the handle accessible to the operator.
