Sklar Hayes Rectal Forceps, 10-1/4 Inch
A 10-1/4 inch Sklar Hayes rectal forceps, used to grasp tissue or specimens during rectal and lower gastrointestinal surgical procedures.
The Sklar Hayes Rectal Forceps is a 10-1/4 inch instrument designed to grasp tissue, polyps or specimens during rectal and lower gastrointestinal surgical procedures. Its extended length gives the surgeon the reach needed to work within the rectal canal or lower colon without requiring an open abdominal approach, and the jaw is built to secure tissue firmly enough for manipulation, biopsy or removal while working through this confined anatomical space.
This pattern is offered by Sklar in two lengths, 10-1/4 and 11 inches, allowing colorectal and general surgeons to select the reach best suited to the specific procedure and patient anatomy. Surgeons performing hemorrhoidectomy, polypectomy or other anorectal procedures use forceps like this as part of a dedicated anorectal instrument set, typically alongside specula, retractors and other instruments purpose built for lower gastrointestinal access.
The instrument is made from surgical grade stainless steel and intended for repeated sterilized use.
