Mayo-Hegar needle holder 9 straight serrated jaws ring handle

Controlled Needle Handling Across Surgical Workflows

The Mayo-Hegar needle holder is a surgical instrument used to grasp, position, and guide suture needles during tissue closure. Its 9-inch length supports working access where additional reach is useful, while the straight serrated jaws are designed for a secure, controlled hold on the needle. The ring handle supports familiar instrument handling during repetitive suturing tasks. Suitable for cardiovascular, general surgery, neurosurgery, and plastic surgery workflows, this needle holder provides a practical option for passing and manipulating needles without changing the core technique expected of a standard Mayo-Hegar pattern.

Use Cases

• Grasp and guide suture needles during cardiovascular surgical closure tasks.
• Support routine needle handling and suturing workflows in general surgery.
• Provide controlled needle positioning during neurosurgical procedures requiring careful instrument handling.
• Assist needle manipulation during plastic surgery closure and reconstruction workflows.
