Instrument Features

• The tapered jaws of these clamps may facilitate and ease dissection of key structures during VATS procedures.The curved jaws may be useful for blunt dissection to mobilize the artery, vein and bronchus.
• The straight jaws may be used as a guide prior to stapling by passing behind the mobilized artery, vein or bronchus to replicate the direction of the linear stapler.
• The straight jaws may be used to clamp the lung tissue parallel to the stapler when stapling the lung tissue; this creates even tissue tension which results in a smooth, even staple line.
• Available with or without ratchets.
