Castroviejo Needle Holder for Micro Surgery, With Catch, Curved, 145 mm
Part No.: MS-WX-176
Manufacturer: Manning Surgical
Country of Origin: United Kingdom
The Castroviejo Needle Holder (With Catch, Curved, 145 mm) is a specialized microsurgical instrument engineered for the secure manipulation and precise placement of micro-sutures in highly delicate surgical corridors. Commonly utilized in ophthalmic, cardiovascular, plastic, and neurosurgical procedures, this instrument features fine, curved jaws that enhance peripheral visualization and optimize the angle of needle penetration in restricted spaces. Its integrated spring mechanism combined with a reliable locking catch provides clinicians with maximum stability, allowing for the steady holding of micro-needles without requiring continuous digital pressure.
Features:
- Integrated Locking Catch Mechanism: Equipped with a precision-engineered locking mechanism (catch) that securely locks the jaws in a closed position, ensuring a dependable, slip-free grip on micro-needles while minimizing operator hand fatigue during complex suturing sequences.
- Curved Tapered Jaws: Designed with delicate, curved micro-jaws that match the curvature of fine microsurgical needles, facilitating smoother tissue entry angles and superior structural visibility under high magnification.
- Double-Leaf Spring Handle: Features a responsive spring system that automatically springs the instrument back to an open, ready position when the catch is disengaged, enabling fluid, efficient, and repetitive suturing actions.
- Flat Handles and Ideal Tool Length: The 145 mm overall length provides optimal longitudinal balance and leverage, while the wide, knurled flat shanks increase surface area contact to prevent unwanted axial rotation between gloved fingers.
- High-Grade Surgical Stainless Steel: Manufactured from premium, medical-grade stainless steel that resists corrosion, maintains geometric alignment under mechanical stress, and easily withstands standardized chemical and thermal autoclaving sterilization protocols.
