Sklar Rochester-Ochsner Kocher Forceps, Delicate
A delicate 5-1/4 inch Kocher pattern forceps from Sklar with a 1x2 tooth grip, offered curved or straight, used to clamp tissue during surgical procedures.
The Sklar Rochester-Ochsner (Kocher) Forceps are a well known clamping instrument with a 1x2 tooth pattern at the tip, used to grasp and control tissue or vessels securely during surgery. This delicate version, measuring 5-1/4 inches, is proportioned for finer work than the standard sized Kocher forceps, suiting procedures where a lighter touch is preferred while still needing the secure, toothed grip the Kocher pattern is known for.
This listing offers both curved and straight configurations, letting the surgeon choose the approach that suits the angle of the tissue or vessel being clamped during a particular step. The Kocher pattern's serrated jaw with interlocking teeth at the tip gives a strong hold that resists slipping, which is valued when controlling a bleeding vessel or securing tissue under tension.
General, gynaecological and other surgical specialties use delicate Kocher forceps like this routinely, and surgical departments typically keep both curvature options in stock alongside the standard sized equivalent.
