Description

BusinessMed® Castroviejo Suturing Forceps carry tungsten carbide on the jaws, the hard insert that holds its tooth edges where plain steel wears against needles and suture. The pyramid-shaped teeth meet point to point, so the same tip fixes tissue for the needle pass and then holds the suture.

What are Castroviejo suture forceps used for?

  • Ophthalmic surgery: fixing corneal and other fine eye tissue for each stitch, as in keratoplasty.
  • Plastic and microsurgery: holding delicate tissue and fine suture near the eye and in other small fields.
