Sklar Collin Uterine Forceps, Angled
A 10 inch forceps angled on the side, used to grasp and manipulate uterine tissue during gynecologic surgical and obstetric procedures.
The Sklar Collin Uterine Forceps is a 10 inch grasping instrument angled on the side, shaped specifically to reach and hold uterine tissue securely during gynecologic and obstetric surgical procedures. The side angled design allows the surgeon to approach the uterus from a workable position within the pelvis, applying a firm grip on tissue that can otherwise be difficult to stabilize given its size and mobility within the surgical field.
This listing covers three variants of the instrument, giving surgical teams options suited to their preferred technique and case type, whether that involves manipulation during hysterectomy, myomectomy or other uterine surgery. A secure, atraumatic hold on uterine tissue is important both for surgical control and for reducing bleeding from tissue trauma during manipulation.
Gynecologic surgeons and their surgical teams use forceps of this kind as a specialized addition to gynecologic surgery trays, distinct from the general tissue and hemostatic forceps used elsewhere in a case. As a reusable stainless steel instrument, it is cleaned, inspected for jaw alignment and sterilized between surgical cases.
