The 10 1/2″ DeBakey Aortic Aneurysm Clamp 8.5cm 1×2 Teeth is a precision-engineered vascular clamp developed to provide reliable temporary occlusion of the aorta and other large arteries during complex cardiovascular and vascular surgical procedures. Designed in the classic DeBakey pattern, this instrument offers surgeons exceptional control, secure vessel engagement, and atraumatic performance, making it an indispensable tool for cardiac and vascular operating rooms.

Frequently used during abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair, thoracic aortic aneurysm surgery, arterial bypass procedures, vascular reconstruction, aortic replacement, and other major cardiovascular operations, this clamp enables temporary interruption of blood flow while maintaining a clear and controlled surgical field. The 8.5 cm jaws are carefully designed to accommodate large-caliber vessels, while the 1×2 toothed jaw configuration enhances gripping stability, reducing the risk of clamp displacement during delicate surgical procedures.

With an overall length of 10 1/2 inches, the instrument offers an excellent balance of reach and maneuverability. It provides sufficient access to deep operative sites while remaining comfortable to handle in confined surgical spaces. The ergonomic finger ring handles deliver excellent tactile feedback and allow precise positioning, helping reduce surgeon fatigue during prolonged operations.

The DeBakey jaw design is engineered to distribute clamping pressure evenly across the vessel wall, minimizing localized stress and reducing the likelihood of vascular trauma. The 1×2 teeth improve clamp stability without excessive compression, allowing surgeons to maintain secure occlusion while preserving the integrity of delicate vascular tissues. This atraumatic design supports optimal outcomes during complex arterial repair and reconstruction procedures.

Constructed from premium surgical-grade stainless steel, the DeBakey Aortic Aneurysm Clamp is built for long-term performance in demanding surgical environments. The corrosion-resistant material withstands repeated cleaning, disinfection, and sterilization while maintaining its precision and structural integrity. Its satin matte finish minimizes glare from operating room lighting, enhancing visibility during intricate cardiovascular interventions.

The instrument features a dependable ratchet locking mechanism that maintains consistent clamping pressure throughout the procedure. This secure locking system ensures stable vessel occlusion without requiring continuous manual force, allowing surgeons to focus on critical aspects of the operation with confidence.

The 10 1/2″ DeBakey Aortic Aneurysm Clamp 8.5cm, 1×2 Teeth is widely used in cardiovascular surgery departments, vascular surgery units, cardiothoracic operating rooms, teaching hospitals, and specialized surgical centers. Its precision design and dependable performance make it suitable for routine and advanced vascular procedures requiring temporary arterial occlusion.

Following surgery, the instrument can be thoroughly cleaned and sterilized using standard hospital steam autoclave protocols. Its reusable stainless steel construction provides excellent resistance to corrosion, staining, and wear, ensuring years of reliable clinical service while supporting modern infection control practices.

Combining precise vascular control, ergonomic handling, durable construction, and atraumatic performance, the 10 1/2″ DeBakey Aortic Aneurysm Clamp 8.5cm, 1×2 Teeth Cardiovascular Surgical Instrument is an essential instrument for cardiovascular professionals seeking dependable performance in complex vascular and aortic surgery.
