Veidenheimer Atrauma Sigmoid anas. Fcps 23cm

Clinical Application

Designed for atraumatic handling of bowel during intestinal and colorectal anastomosis, this instrument facilitates manipulation, alignment and temporary stabilization of bowel ends without crushing delicate mucosa. The sigmoid curvature and 23 cm length allow access into deep pelvic and abdominal fields during open colorectal, general abdominal, and select pelvic procedures where a gentle, secure hold is required.

Design & Configuration

The S-shaped (sigmoid) shaft geometry provides a lateral approach to operative targets, allowing the working tips to reach around structures and into confined or deep cavities while keeping the surgeon’s hands and instruments clear of the line of sight. The atraumatic jaw design distributes contact pressure across tissue to minimize point compression and reduce mucosal injury, supporting safer tissue apposition during anastomosis.
