Description

Laparoscopic Single-Tooth or Double-Tooth Tenaculum/Grasper.

Description: This is a specialized, heavy-duty grasping instrument, often used in gynecological procedures for firmly securing dense or slippery tissue, particularly the cervix or uterus.

Ratchet Handle: The proximal end features a long handle with a ratchet locking mechanism (visible near the pivot point). The ratchet allows the surgeon to lock the jaws closed onto the tissue with a predetermined force, maintaining grip without continuous manual pressure.

Tenaculum Tip: The distal tip typically has a single or double tooth/hook on each jaw. This sharp, pointed design provides a strong, non-slip purchase on tough tissues.

Shaft: The instrument has a very long shaft, confirming its use through a small port or scope, usually in a pelvic or abdominal cavity.
