Sklar Dupuy-Weiss Ligature Carrier, Right
An eight and a half inch ligature carrier used to pass suture material around a vessel or tissue structure during surgical procedures.
The Sklar Dupuy-Weiss Ligature Carrier is used to pass a length of suture material around a blood vessel or another tissue structure that needs to be tied off or encircled during surgery, a task that can be awkward or risky to perform with a needle alone in confined or vascular areas. The carrier's shaped tip guides the ligature around the target structure in a controlled motion, reducing the chance of injury to adjacent tissue.
This right hand pattern, measuring eight and a half inches, is designed for the orientation most surgeons find natural when working from a particular side of the operative field, and this listing includes two length variants sharing that measurement. Ligature carriers of this type are used in general, vascular and gynaecological surgery whenever a vessel or duct needs to be looped and ligated rather than clamped and divided directly.
As a stainless steel instrument, it is built for repeated cleaning, sterilisation and reuse across many surgical cases in a hospital setting.
