Mayo-Hegar needle holder 14 heavy straight serrated TC jaws gold ring handle

Controlled Needle Handling Across Surgical Workflows

The Mayo-Hegar needle holder is a 14-inch heavy, straight instrument designed to grasp and guide surgical needles during suturing. Its serrated TC jaws provide a defined contact surface, while the gold ring handle supports familiar instrument handling and control. The extended length can be useful when working across deeper or less accessible operative fields, helping maintain a practical working distance from the site. Suitable for workflows in cardiovascular, general surgery, and neurosurgery, this needle holder supports consistent needle manipulation without changing the established Mayo-Hegar format used in surgical instrument sets.

Use Cases

• Grasping and guiding needles during suturing in cardiovascular procedures.
• Supporting routine needle handling and closure tasks in general surgery.
• Managing suturing work where extended reach is useful in neurosurgical operating fields.
• Using the straight profile for direct needle positioning and controlled pass-through during closure.
• Handling heavier or larger needles with a heavy Mayo-Hegar needle holder design.
