The Carter Glassman Resection Clamp 27.9cm 110mm Jaw is a precision-engineered surgical instrument developed for controlled tissue occlusion and atraumatic clamping during thoracic, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, and general surgical procedures. Renowned for its dependable performance in major operative interventions, this resection clamp offers surgeons outstanding control, secure tissue engagement, and optimal visibility during complex resections.

Designed for demanding surgical environments, the Carter Glassman Resection Clamp is ideal for temporarily occluding tissue and hollow organs while maintaining tissue integrity. The instrument is commonly used during pulmonary resections, intestinal procedures, thoracic operations, and other surgeries requiring stable tissue compression without excessive trauma. Its carefully engineered jaw design helps distribute clamping pressure evenly, reducing the risk of unnecessary tissue injury.

The clamp features an extended 110mm jaw, providing a broad clamping surface that ensures secure tissue engagement over a larger operative area. This extended jaw length is particularly beneficial during lung and intestinal resections, where consistent compression and precise tissue control are essential. Surgeons can confidently isolate and manipulate tissues while maintaining excellent operative exposure.

Available in both straight and angled jaw configurations, the Carter Glassman Resection Clamp offers versatility to accommodate different surgical approaches. The straight version provides direct access and excellent visualization in open procedures, while the angled design facilitates access around anatomical structures and within deep operative fields. This flexibility allows surgeons to select the configuration best suited to the specific procedure.

With an overall length of 27.9cm (11 inches), the clamp delivers an ideal balance of reach, leverage, and maneuverability. Its extended profile allows comfortable access to deeper surgical sites while maintaining precise instrument control. The ergonomic finger ring handles and balanced construction reduce hand fatigue and improve handling during prolonged operations.

Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel, the Carter Glassman Resection Clamp provides outstanding durability, corrosion resistance, and long-term clinical reliability. The precision-machined jaws maintain accurate alignment through repeated sterilization cycles, ensuring dependable clamping performance over years of professional use. The polished surgical finish supports efficient cleaning and compliance with modern infection control standards.

The integrated ratchet locking mechanism allows surgeons to maintain consistent clamping pressure without continuous hand force. Multiple ratchet positions enable controlled adjustment according to tissue thickness and procedural requirements, enhancing surgical precision and efficiency.

This versatile instrument is widely used in cardiovascular surgery, thoracic surgery, pulmonary surgery, gastrointestinal surgery, oncologic surgery, and general surgery. It is suitable for tissue occlusion, lung resection, bowel resection, organ manipulation, and temporary vascular control during complex procedures.

To preserve optimal performance, the clamp should be thoroughly cleaned, inspected, lubricated at the box lock, and sterilized according to established medical instrument reprocessing protocols. Routine maintenance helps maintain jaw alignment, ratchet function, and overall instrument longevity.

The Cardio Vascular Surgical Carter Glassman Resection Clamp – 110mm Jaw, Straight & Angled, 27.9cm combines precision engineering, ergonomic handling, and premium stainless steel construction, making it an essential instrument for surgeons performing advanced thoracic, cardiovascular, and gastrointestinal surgical procedures.
