Castroviejo Tissue Forceps 1x2 Teeth 11.4 cm (4.5)

Controlled fixation with a compact, secure handling profile

The Stern-Castroviejo fixation forceps is a 4 3/8-inch instrument designed for controlled fixation and precise tissue handling in surgical workflows. Its 0.5mm 1x2-tooth pattern provides a defined grasping interface, while the locking mechanism can help maintain engagement during tasks that require steady positioning. The flat 3-hole handle supports a deliberate hand position and practical instrument control. Suitable for both General Surgery and Ophthalmic applications, its compact length can support close-access work where measured manipulation and clear visualization are important. The design offers a focused option for clinicians seeking dependable handling in detailed operative tasks.

Use Cases

• Fixating and gently holding tissue during General Surgery procedures that require a defined toothed grasp.
• Supporting controlled tissue positioning in Ophthalmic workflows where compact forceps are useful for close-access manipulation.
• Maintaining instrument engagement during tasks that benefit from the locking feature.
• Using the 0.5mm 1x2-tooth jaw pattern for focused fixation rather than broad-area grasping.
• Applying the flat 3-hole handle for deliberate finger placement during detailed handling.
