Zanger Hemostatic Forceps Curved 10.0 cm (4")

Controlled Aortic Handling with Extended Curved Access

The Zanger abdominal aorta clamp is a surgical clamp intended for controlled handling of the abdominal aorta during cardiovascular and general surgical procedures. Its 12 1/4-inch length and curved shanks provide useful reach into the operative field, while the curved 10.5 cm jaws support access around relevant anatomy. Atraumatic 2x3 teeth jaws are named for tissue-conscious engagement, and the ring handle supports a familiar grip for deliberate placement and adjustment. This configuration can help integrate a long-reach clamping instrument into workflows where access, visualization, and controlled handling are important.

Use Cases

• Support controlled clamping tasks involving the abdominal aorta in cardiovascular surgical workflows.
• Provide extended reach for general surgery procedures requiring access to deeper operative anatomy.
• Use the curved shanks and jaws to approach the operative field while maintaining a practical instrument profile.
• Apply the ring handle for deliberate positioning and manipulation during clamp placement and removal.
