Petelin Laparoscopic Grasper

The Petelin Laparoscopic Grasper is a precision 5mm surgical instrument featuring a single-action jaw mechanism and a distinct, often 90-degree or left-curved, serrated tip. Designed for rotatable 360-degree maneuverability, it typically includes an insulated shaft with a high-frequency (HF) connection for electrosurgical tasks. Its carbon fiber or ergonomic ring handle allows for high-tension grasping and tactile feedback during intricate maneuvers.

Primary uses

This instrument is primarily utilized for tissue manipulation, grasping, and blunt dissection in minimally invasive procedures. Its specific curvature makes it ideal for navigating around delicate structures or working in tight anatomical spaces where straight instruments cannot reach. It is frequently used in general, gynecological, and urological surgeries to provide traction and facilitate exposure.
