Sklar McGivney Forceps, 7-1/2 Inch

The Sklar McGivney Forceps is used in proctology to grasp and manipulate tissue around the anal canal, a task that comes up during haemorrhoid treatment and other anorectal procedures where the clinician needs a secure hold on tissue in a confined and often mobile surgical field. Sharing its name with the McGivney hemorrhoid ligator system, this forceps is typically used alongside that equipment or similar instruments during outpatient or minor procedure treatment of haemorrhoids.

Colorectal surgeons, general surgeons and gastroenterology practices offering proctology services use this forceps as part of a standard anorectal instrument tray. It measures 7-1/2 inches overall. This listing is a single configuration. As with other Sklar surgical instruments, it is manufactured from surgical stainless steel and, given its use in the anorectal region, must be thoroughly cleaned and sterilised between each patient.
