Masson Luethy Needle Holder 26cm

Clinical Application

Used to securely grasp and manipulate suture needles during tissue approximation and knot tying. The short, firm beak of the Masson-Luethy pattern provides controlled needle purchase and tactile feedback, facilitating precise placement of interrupted and running sutures. Its 26 cm length gives additional reach for procedures in deeper cavities or where the surgeon requires extra distance between hand and field. Common applications include general surgical cases and specialty procedures that require fine needle control in restricted access sites.

Design & Configuration

The Masson-Luethy geometry features a short, stout tip that concentrates clamping force at the needle for secure purchase with minimal slippage. Ring handles with a ratchet locking mechanism allow one-handed needle control and sustained grip while tying knots or transferring the needle. The increased overall length improves reach into deeper wounds or body cavities without sacrificing control at the tip. A robust box-lock hinge provides alignment and long-term durability under repeated use.
