Deschamps Ligature Needle blunt right 28cm

Clinical Application

Designed for secure passage of ligatures and suture around vessels, pedicles, or other tubular structures where controlled blunt dissection and tunneling are required. The long 28 cm shaft provides reach into deep wounds or cavities (abdominal, thoracic, and pelvic procedures), while the blunt tip reduces the risk of unintended vessel or organ perforation during suture placement. Common uses include vessel ligation, placement of drain sutures, and looping sutures around structures that should not be pierced.

Design & Configuration

The Deschamps geometry features a bowed, right-curved profile that facilitates encircling and retrieving ligatures around cylindrical structures without excessive tissue trauma. The blunt tip is intended to push rather than cut, allowing the surgeon to create a tunnel or follow tissue planes safely. The 28 cm overall length increases working reach in deep or confined operative fields, enabling controlled suture passage from a distance and reducing the need for repeated instrument exchanges.
