Collin Tissue & Organ Holding Forceps

Description

Collin Tissue & Organ Holding Forceps

The Collin tissue forceps hold organs and delicate tissue with heart-shaped jaws. This rounded jaw spreads grip over a broad area, so tissue stays held without crushing.

Heart-shaped jaws

The jaws open into a rounded, heart-like shape. As a result, they cradle tissue instead of pinching it.

Two lengths of the Collin tissue forceps

We offer 14 cm and 16.5 cm. Additionally, both suit moderate depth work. Meanwhile, the longer one reaches a little deeper.

Typical uses

General surgeons use them on bowel, lung and other soft organs. They also help in breast and thyroid surgery.

Technique

Cradle the tissue in the rounded jaws before clicking the ratchet once. Lift slowly so the tissue follows.

On the tray

Babcock and Duval forceps offer similar gentle grips. Also, many trays carry a mix of these patterns.

Why surgeons pick it

A broad, rounded hold suits tissue that will remain in the patient. Therefore, it is a common choice for delicate work.

Why we stand behind each forceps

Our Atlanta team studies the Collin forceps in person ahead of shipping. The Collin tissue forceps carry three years against manufacturing defects. Busy theaters order two of these to avoid delays. We also suggest an option for your team. For details on instrument metals, go to ASTM F899. For help with an order, browse our order FAQ. Some trays also hold the Collin dressing forceps.
