Sklar Ferguson Angiotribe Forceps, Straight

The Sklar Ferguson Angiotribe Forceps is a heavier clamping instrument used to crush and occlude larger blood vessels or tissue pedicles during surgery, a role distinct from a standard haemostat, which is generally used on finer vessels. The angiotribe pattern applies a broader, firmer clamping action across the tissue, making it suited to structures such as the pedicle of an organ or a larger vascular bundle that needs to be controlled before division or ligation.

This listing covers four variants, at six inches and seven and a half inches, all in the straight pattern, letting a surgical team choose the size that matches the vessel or tissue mass being clamped. Instruments of this kind are used in general, gynaecological and urological surgery wherever a larger vascular structure needs to be controlled, handled by surgeons and their assistants during procedures such as hysterectomy or nephrectomy.

As a stainless steel instrument, it is built for the repeated cleaning and sterilisation cycles of hospital instrument processing and for continued reuse across many surgical cases.
