Yasargil Applying Forceps for Aneurysm Clips

Yasargil clip applying forceps hold an aneurysm clip, open it and place it on the neck of an aneurysm. Neurovascular surgeons rely on them during clipping, when accuracy matters most.

What the forceps do

An aneurysm clip needs steady control while the surgeon guides it into position. So the applier grips the clip, opens its blades and then releases it once it sits in place. The Yasargil pattern takes its name from Gazi Yasargil, a founder of microneurosurgery.

Lengths and clip types

We offer four lengths: 17, 18, 20 and 23 cm. Each length comes in a version for standard clips or for mini clips. That gives eight options, so you can match the forceps to both depth and clip size.

Where they fit

A clipping set usually holds several appliers. For example, a shorter one may suit a superficial vessel, while a 23 cm applier reaches the skull base. Surgeons also keep a spare in case a clip needs repositioning.

Matching forceps to clips

First, confirm whether your clips are standard or mini. Next, check that our applier fits your clip system, since makers differ. If you are unsure, send us your clip brand and model, and we will check.

Caring for your Yasargil clip applying forceps

Clean the jaws straight after use, because clip seats trap debris. Then brush the joint and rinse thoroughly. Dry the forceps completely, and check that they open and close smoothly before sterilizing.
