Carter Glassman Resection Clamp Jaw 110mm Straight Angled 27.9cm General Surgery Instruments is a specialized surgical instrument designed for temporary clamping and occlusion of the intestine during bowel resections, gastrointestinal anastomosis, and other abdominal surgical procedures. Its straight angled configuration and long atraumatic jaws allow surgeons to securely control intestinal segments while helping minimize tissue trauma.

Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel, the Carter Glassman Resection Clamp delivers exceptional durability, corrosion resistance, and long-term clinical reliability. The high-quality stainless steel construction maintains precise jaw alignment and smooth mechanical operation through repeated cleaning and sterilization cycles. A satin or mirror-polished finish reduces glare under operating room lighting while providing a smooth, easy-to-clean surface.

The instrument features 110 mm straight angled jaws with atraumatic longitudinal serrations designed to provide secure intestinal occlusion without excessive tissue compression. The carefully engineered jaw design distributes pressure evenly, helping preserve tissue integrity during bowel resection and anastomotic procedures.

With an overall length of 27.9 cm, the clamp offers excellent reach into deep abdominal operative fields while maintaining precise control and maneuverability. The straight angled profile enhances visualization and facilitates access around surrounding anatomical structures during open gastrointestinal surgery.

The integrated ratchet locking mechanism maintains consistent clamping pressure without continuous hand force, ensuring reliable bowel occlusion and allowing surgeons to perform procedures efficiently.

Ergonomic finger ring handles provide a secure and comfortable grip, enhancing instrument control while reducing hand fatigue during prolonged surgical procedures. The balanced construction supports smooth, controlled handling throughout the operation.

Carter Glassman Resection Clamp is widely used in general surgery, colorectal surgery, gastrointestinal surgery, hepatobiliary surgery, and abdominal procedures requiring temporary bowel occlusion during intestinal resection, reconstruction, and anastomosis.

Designed for repeated professional use, the instrument is fully reusable and compatible with standard hospital sterilization methods, including steam autoclaving. Its premium stainless steel construction resists rust, corrosion, staining, and wear, ensuring dependable performance throughout years of clinical use.

Each instrument undergoes rigorous quality control testing to verify jaw alignment, serration accuracy, ratchet engagement, and overall mechanical reliability before clinical use.
