Dandy artery forceps, also sometimes called Dandy-Stille artery forceps, are versatile instruments used in various surgical procedures for controlling bleeding (hemostasis) in delicate tissues.

 

Details:

  • Material: Made from high-grade stainless steel for strength, durability, and ease of sterilization.
  • Jaws: Feature a tapered design with two variations:
    • Serrated jaws: These have fine serrations on the grasping surface for a secure hold on blood vessels, particularly useful in general surgery.
    • Smooth jaws: These lack serrations and are preferred for situations where minimal tissue damage is crucial, such as neurosurgery or microsurgery.
  • Body: Possess a characteristic lateral curve that allows for better access and maneuverability in confined surgical fields.
  • Locking mechanism: Incorporate a ratchet or box lock mechanism on the handles, enabling surgeons to maintain a controlled clamping pressure on the vessel without needing constant hand pressure.

 

Size:

  • Dandy artery forceps typically come in a standard length ranging from 14.5 cm to 15 cm (approximately 5 ¾ inches to 6 inches).

Applications:

Due to their versatility, Dandy artery forceps find use in a wide range of surgical specialties, including:

  • Cardiovascular surgery: Clamping blood vessels during bypass procedures.
  • Neurosurgery: Controlling bleeding in delicate brain and spinal cord tissues.
  • ENT surgery (Ear, Nose, and Throat): Hemostasis during procedures on the ear, nose, and throat.
  • General surgery: Clamping blood vessels in various abdominal and soft tissue procedures.
  • Urology: Controlling bleeding during urologic surgeries.
  • Gynecology and Obstetrics: Hemostasis in procedures involving the uterus and other reproductive organs.

 

Additional Points:

  • The choice between serrated and smooth jaws depends on the specific needs of the surgery and the desired level of tissue preservation.
  • The lateral curve of the body facilitates grasping vessels at angles that may be difficult to reach with straight forceps.
