Allis Tissue Forceps

Instrument Overview

The Allis Tissue Forceps are a widely recognized surgical instrument used to securely grasp and hold tissue without causing significant damage. They feature a unique jaw design with a row of small, inward-curving teeth that minimize slippage while avoiding the sharp points found on other grasping instruments. The ratcheted handle allows the instrument to lock onto the tissue, maintaining a constant, firm grip during surgery.

• Blunt Interdigitating Teeth: Designed to provide a secure, non-crushing hold on soft and fibrous tissue, such as fascia or bowel.
• Ratcheted Lock: Enables hands-free clamping, ensuring consistent traction and hemostasis when required.
• Versatile Application: Commonly used in general surgery for holding and retracting tissue, and in gynecological and orthopedic procedures.
• Multiple Configurations: Available in two popular tooth patterns (3x4 and 4x5) for varying tissue density requirements.
