Sklar Essrig Angled Tissue Forceps, 6 Inch
A six inch angled forceps used to grasp and manipulate tissue at an angle from the surgeon's hand, useful in confined surgical fields.
The Sklar Essrig Angled Tissue Forceps is built with an angled shank, letting the surgeon grasp and manipulate tissue that lies at an angle from the natural line of the hand rather than directly in front of it, a useful property when working in a confined surgical field or around structures that obstruct a straight approach.
At six inches, it is proportioned for general surgical use where this kind of angled access is needed without requiring an oversized instrument. Tissue forceps of this type are used to hold, retract or position tissue during dissection, exposure and closure throughout a surgical procedure, and the angled design gives the surgeon an additional option alongside straight and curved forceps already on the tray.
It is used by surgeons and surgical assistants across general and specialty surgery wherever an angled reach to tissue improves visibility or access. Manufactured in stainless steel, it is designed for the repeated cleaning and sterilisation cycles of hospital instrument processing and for continued reuse across many surgical cases.
