Colon Clamps

Colon Clamps are specialized atraumatic surgical clamps designed for occluding and handling the large intestine (colon) during abdominal and colorectal surgery. They feature longer, often curved jaws with fine serrations or cushioned inserts to securely hold the bowel wall without causing crush injury or ischemia. These clamps are essential for creating a clean operative field, preventing spillage of intestinal contents, and facilitating safe anastomosis in procedures such as colectomy, hemicolectomy, and colorectal resection.

Key Features:
– Atraumatic jaws with fine serrations or rubber inserts to protect the bowel wall.
– Longer shaft and curved design for deep pelvic access and comfortable handling.
– Used for temporary occlusion, retraction, and stabilization of the colon.
– Critical for maintaining aseptic technique and preventing contamination.
– Available in various sizes and styles (e.g., Doyen, Glassman, Satinsky).
– Fundamental instruments in general surgery and surgical oncology sets.

Handle the colon with safety and precision. Colon Clamps are available from Medic Instrument.
