Clinical Application
Designed to facilitate safe placement and retrieval of ligatures in open surgical settings. The conductor allows the surgeon to pass suture material around vessels, ducts, small pedicles, or through confined tissue planes where direct hand access is limited. Common uses include general and abdominal surgery, gynecologic procedures, and other soft-tissue operations requiring controlled ligation in deep or narrow operative fields.
Design & Configuration
The straight 22 cm shaft provides sufficient reach for intra-abdominal and pelvic work while preserving tactile feedback for the operator. A smooth, blunt tip with an integrated eyelet or channel retains the suture during passage and minimizes tissue trauma as the instrument is advanced and withdrawn. The simple straight geometry promotes predictable alignment when threading and retrieving ligatures along dissected tissue planes.
