Glassman Gastroenterostomy Clamp Jaw 116mm Straight Angled 29.2cm General Surgery Instruments is a specialized surgical instrument designed for temporarily clamping and occluding sections of the stomach and intestines during gastroenterostomy and other gastrointestinal surgical procedures. Its straight angled design and long atraumatic jaws provide surgeons with precise control while helping minimize tissue injury during intestinal manipulation.

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

The instrument features 116 mm straight angled jaws engineered with atraumatic longitudinal serrations that securely occlude hollow organs while minimizing compression-related tissue trauma. This design allows temporary interruption of intestinal contents and blood flow when required, supporting precise anastomotic and gastrointestinal procedures.

With an overall length of 29.2 cm, the clamp provides excellent reach into deep abdominal operative fields while maintaining superior control and maneuverability. The straight angled profile improves visualization and access around surrounding anatomical structures during open gastrointestinal surgery.

The integrated ratchet locking mechanism maintains consistent clamping pressure without continuous hand force, enabling secure tissue stabilization throughout the procedure while allowing the surgeon to work efficiently.

Ergonomic finger ring handles provide a comfortable and secure grip, ensuring precise instrument control during prolonged surgical procedures. The balanced construction reduces hand fatigue while supporting smooth and controlled manipulation.

Glassman Gastroenterostomy Clamp is widely used in general surgery, gastrointestinal surgery, colorectal surgery, hepatobiliary surgery, and other abdominal procedures requiring temporary bowel or gastric occlusion during resection 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.
