Bipolar forceps for the neuroendoscope acc. to GAAB and the LOTTA™ neuroendoscope acc. to SCHROEDER

These bipolar forceps were developed specifically for use in neuroendoscopy and can be used through the working channels of the neuroendoscopes acc. to GAAB or SCHROEDER (LOTTA™).

In brain surgery, bipolar coagulation is generally preferred because of its closed electric circuit that prevents accidental injury to surrounding structures. Unlike bipolar electrodes, bipolar forceps can grasp and secure a tissue bridge and vessel, for example, and thereby coagulate them very effectively. In the process, pressure is also exerted on the bleeding site, which further contributes to hemostasis in addition to the actual coagulation. The forceps can also be used for the bloodless cutting of strands of tissue, and cutting diathermy can be performed as well. Hence, these forceps are an important addition to the bipolar coagulation electrodes and to monopolar diathermy.

The TAKE-APART® bipolar forceps can be completely dismantled and are therefore easy to clean. The handles and sheaths are reusable and autoclavable. The inserts for these forceps are single-use items and are offered in packages of 5.

These bipolar forceps have the following features:
