Castroviejo Suture Forceps with Micro Tying Platform
The Castroviejo Suture Forceps is a cornerstone of micro-surgical procedures, valued for its extreme precision and ergonomic balance. Equipped with a specialized tying platform, these forceps allow surgeons to execute delicate knots and handle fine monofilament sutures with ease. At Adas Instruments, we offer tip sizes as fine as 0.3mm to ensure your reconstructive surgery tools meet the highest clinical standards. We ship USA, Europe & worldwide via DHL, FedEx, and UPS to ensure your facility is always equipped with medical-grade instruments.
During complex eyelid reconstructions, these micro forceps are the perfect partner for our dissecting scissors. When used as a primary fixation forceps for skin edges, they provide the stability required for meticulous placement. Furthermore, they seamlessly complement our suturing forceps and micro-holders to create a complete microsurgical kit.
Unmatched Control for Micro-Surgery Surgical Pickups
Crafted from premium surgical steel, our Castroviejo models feature a wide handle with longitudinal serrations for a non-slip grip, even under magnification. The 1×2 teeth configuration is engineered to grasp tissue without causing trauma, while the flat tying platform behind the tips prevents suture shredding. This makes them indispensable for blepharoplasty and other aesthetic facial surgeries.
Surgical Application
- Ophthalmic Surgery: Handling delicate conjunctival and corneal tissues.
- Blepharoplasty: Precise alignment of eyelid skin during wound closure.
- Micro-Suturing: Tying 6-0 to 10-0 sutures with high tactile feedback.
Care and Maintenance Section
To maintain the delicate alignment of the 0.3mm tips, always store Castroviejo forceps in a dedicated instrument tray or with tip protectors. Clean thoroughly using ultrasonic methods and avoid using abrasive brushes on the micro-teeth. These forceps are fully autoclavable; ensure the tying platform is free of debris before sterilization to maintain a smooth gripping surface.
