The 9 5/8″ Cleveland Clinic Renal Clamp Left Large Cardiovascular is a precision-engineered vascular clamp developed for temporary occlusion of major blood vessels during renal, cardiovascular, thoracic, and vascular surgical procedures. Designed to provide superior vessel control while minimizing trauma to delicate vascular tissues, this instrument is an essential component of advanced cardiovascular and transplant surgical sets.

Measuring 9 5/8 inches (approximately 24.5 cm) in overall length, the clamp provides extended reach for accessing deep anatomical structures within the abdominal and thoracic cavities. Its longer profile enables surgeons to work comfortably around the renal hilum and other complex vascular regions while maintaining excellent visibility and precise instrument control.

The instrument features large left-oriented atraumatic jaws, specifically designed to facilitate secure temporary occlusion of the left renal artery, renal vein, and other medium to large-caliber blood vessels. The left-curved jaw configuration allows optimal access to anatomically challenging vessels while improving surgical ergonomics and reducing unnecessary tissue manipulation.

The atraumatic jaw design distributes clamping pressure evenly across the vessel wall, minimizing endothelial injury and preserving vascular integrity during temporary blood flow interruption. This gentle compression is particularly important during renal transplantation, partial nephrectomy, vascular reconstruction, abdominal aortic surgery, and other procedures requiring prolonged vascular control.

Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel, the 9 5/8″ Cleveland Clinic Renal Clamp Left Large Cardiovascular provides outstanding resistance to corrosion, staining, and repeated sterilization. Precision machining ensures accurate jaw alignment, smooth mechanical operation, and dependable clamping performance throughout years of clinical use. The satin matte finish minimizes glare under operating room lighting, enhancing visualization during intricate vascular procedures.

Ergonomic ring handles offer a secure and comfortable grip, reducing hand fatigue during lengthy operations while improving precision and control. The dependable ratchet locking mechanism maintains consistent clamping pressure without requiring continuous hand force, allowing surgeons to focus on delicate vascular repair and reconstruction. Smooth opening and closing action enables controlled application and release, contributing to efficient surgical workflow.

The 9 5/8″ Cleveland Clinic Renal Clamp Left Large Cardiovascular is widely used in renal surgery, kidney transplantation, nephrectomy, partial nephrectomy, cardiovascular surgery, vascular surgery, abdominal aortic surgery, thoracic surgery, and arterial reconstruction. Its extended length and left-oriented large jaws make it particularly effective for accessing and temporarily occluding vessels in deep operative fields.

Designed for repeated professional use, the clamp is fully compatible with standard hospital sterilization methods, including steam autoclaving. Its premium stainless steel construction maintains structural integrity, corrosion resistance, and precision through repeated sterilization cycles, ensuring dependable long-term clinical performance.

Combining precision engineering, atraumatic vascular control, and durable construction, the 9 5/8″ Cleveland Clinic Renal Clamp Left Large Cardiovascular delivers the reliability and performance demanded by modern renal, cardiovascular, and vascular surgeons.
