incisions. It is utilized in a variety of surgical procedures including
the excision of a skin lesion or recurrent sebaceous cyst and for
opening coronary arteries.
 WEITLANER RETRACTOR

joint procedures, and mastoid surgeries. It is also useful with
small, deep incisions and soft tissue dissection at a superficial
level.

the uterus including the ovum and placenta. Ovum forceps are
used during procedures such as cesarean section, hysterectomy,
and uterine repair and are also sometimes used as a hemostat.

dissection. These scissors have extra-long handles and short
blades for deep cuts into the body. Metzenbaum scissors (also
known as dissecting scissors) have blunt cutting blades, that make
these scissors ideal for dissecting a variety of tissues.

TISSUE FORCEPS
A non-toothed forceps used for fine handling of tissue and traction
during dissection. They are also used to manipulate tissues,
support tissues while making incisions, and suturing, retract
tissues to improve exposure, grasp suture materials and needles.
They essentially “ become your fingers in most cases”.
 RICHARDSON RETRACTORS
It is used to hold back deep tissue structures. Also called “Rich.”
They retract abdominal or chest incisions. Used for holding back
multiple layers of deep tissue. This is one of the most common
general retractors

MIXTER FORCEPS

obscured surgical sites. They are most frequently used for
clamping, dissection, or grasping tissue.
 HUCK TOWELS

absorbent, and extremely low lint cloths. They usually have
smooth sides, sewn edges and are available in various colors,
with blue and green being the most popular. They are often used
during a surgical procedure to drape over a patient. Their low lint
quality also makes them the cloth of choice to clean sterilized
surgical instruments. It is also used to drape over a patient.

special devices that prevent the needle from slipping. Needle
holders allow doctors to access surgical areas that are difficult to
reach and protect doctors from pricking their hands or fingers.

ALLIS TISSUE FORCEPS

A surgical instrument with sharp teeth, used to hold or grasp heavy
tissue. It is also used to grasp fascia and soft tissues such as breast
or bowel tissue. Allis tissue Forcep can cause damage, so they are

to sutures cutting, iris scissor is use in so many other different
procedures related to surgery and excavating of particles on
fragile tissues.
 MALLEABLE RETRACTOR
These retractors are made from malleable stainless steel, allowing
for easy modification of retractor angle and shape. The malleable
retractors are curved according to the curvature of the anatomical
site of the preplanned cavity into which the expanders are to be
inserted. These curved malleable retractors are then used both for
blunt dissection of the cavity and for measurement of the size of
the cavity

CURVED CLAMP
A curved hemostat can reach into and under places more easily
than a straight hemostat can. Using a curved hemostat also allows
a surgeon to grab arteries and veins that have receded slightly
after being cut and clamp them to stop the bleeding immediately.
It can be used for grabbing ahold of instruments. They generally
are used in the medical profession to hold several objects at once
