Gomel Irrigator

Description

Gomel Irrigator

The Gomel irrigator rinses delicate tissue during tubal and pelvic microsurgery. A fine tip directs a gentle stream exactly where the surgeon needs it.

Why the Gomel irrigator

Victor Gomel was a leader in tubal microsurgery, where keeping tissue moist matters greatly. Accordingly, this irrigator suits that kind of delicate work.

Size

Fifteen centimetres is enough to work deep in the pelvis through a laparotomy. In addition, the short body balances well in the fingers.

Typical procedures

Tubal reconstruction and other pelvic microsurgery use it. In addition, it suits delicate work in other specialties.

Technique

Squeeze the syringe slowly so drops fall softly on the tissue. Afterwards, the assistant suctions the pool away.

Compared with Hepp-Scheidel

Both irrigators suit microsurgery. However, the Gomel is slightly shorter, which some surgeons prefer for control.

Checking flow

Test the flow before the case. As a result, blockages show up early.

Gomel irrigator during tubal repair

Dry, raw tissue in the pelvis can stick to nearby tissue as it heals. So many surgeons rinse after each step of a tube repair to keep it wet and clean.
