The 12″ Fitzgerald Aortic Aneurysm Clamp CVD Jaws is a high-quality cardiovascular surgical instrument engineered for precise control of the aorta during advanced vascular and cardiac procedures. Designed for use in aortic aneurysm repair and major vascular interventions, this clamp provides surgeons with reliable temporary occlusion while supporting atraumatic handling of delicate vascular tissues. Its Fitzgerald pattern design and curved jaw configuration make it an essential instrument for cardiovascular surgery requiring accurate vessel management.

With an overall length of 12 inches (approximately 30.5 cm), this aortic aneurysm clamp provides the extended reach required for deep operative fields. The longer design allows surgeons to access large vessels and challenging anatomical areas while maintaining excellent control and visualization. This makes it particularly suitable for complex aortic procedures where precision positioning and dependable occlusion are critical.

The primary feature of the Fitzgerald Aortic Aneurysm Clamp CVD Jaws Cardiovascular Clamp is its specialized CVD (curved) jaw design. The curved jaws follow natural vascular anatomy, allowing improved placement around the aorta and reducing interference with surrounding structures. This configuration supports better surgical access and enables surgeons to achieve stable clamping during demanding cardiovascular procedures.

The atraumatic jaw surface is designed to provide secure vessel compression while minimizing trauma to the aortic wall. By distributing pressure evenly, the clamp helps reduce the risk of endothelial injury and excessive tissue stress. This feature is particularly important during aneurysm repair and vascular reconstruction procedures where preservation of vessel integrity is essential.

The 12″ Fitzgerald Aortic Aneurysm Clamp is commonly used in aortic aneurysm repair, thoracic and abdominal aortic surgery, vascular graft placement, aortic reconstruction, and other cardiovascular procedures requiring temporary blood flow interruption. Its specialized design provides surgeons with dependable control when managing large vessels during complex operations.

Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel, this cardiovascular clamp offers exceptional durability, corrosion resistance, and long-term reliability. Precision craftsmanship ensures smooth jaw movement, accurate alignment, and consistent performance throughout repeated surgical use. The satin finish minimizes operating room glare and supports efficient cleaning and maintenance according to hospital sterilization standards.

The instrument features a precision box lock and secure ratchet mechanism that allow controlled jaw closure and stable vessel fixation. Surgeons can apply appropriate pressure while maintaining excellent tactile feedback and instrument control. The ergonomic handle design improves comfort, balance, and maneuverability during extended cardiovascular procedures.

The 12″ Fitzgerald Aortic Aneurysm Clamp CVD Jaws Cardiovascular Clamp is designed for repeated professional use and is compatible with standard sterilization procedures, including steam autoclaving. The durable stainless steel construction maintains jaw precision, mechanical strength, and structural integrity after repeated cleaning and sterilization cycles.

Combining advanced vascular clamp engineering, atraumatic curved jaws, and durable surgical construction, the 12″ Fitzgerald Aortic Aneurysm Clamp CVD Jaws Cardiovascular Clamp provides surgeons with the accuracy and reliability needed for complex aortic procedures. Its dependable performance makes it a valuable addition to cardiovascular and vascular surgery instrument collections.
