Cushing Bayonet Forceps – Tungsten Carbide (TC) Jaws – 19cm (7 1/2″)

Cushing Bayonet Forceps for High-Precision Neurosurgery

The Cushing Bayonet Forceps is a precision-engineered instrument designed for deep-cavity dissections where visibility is a critical challenge. At Adas Instruments, we prioritize 100% technical accuracy, ensuring this tool provides the exact tactile feedback required for intricate neurosurgical and plastic surgery procedures. This model is crafted to meet the highest standards of medical-grade instruments.

Advanced Engineering and Material Quality

Our Cushing models are constructed from certified German surgical-grade stainless steel, providing the perfect balance of tensile strength and corrosion resistance. As high-performance bayonet dissecting forceps, they feature precision-bonded Tungsten Carbide (TC) inserts. This material engineering ensures that the serrated jaws remain sharp and effective for thousands of sterilization cycles, maintaining a superior grip compared to standard stainless steel TC pickups. The bayonet offset handle is ergonomically calibrated to move the surgeon’s hand out of the line of sight, allowing for an unobstructed view under surgical microscopes.

Surgical Application

• Neurosurgery: Acting as specialized neuro forceps to access deep cranial regions without obstructing the surgeon’s visual field.
• Endoscopic Facial Surgery: Facilitating precise tissue manipulation during brow lifts or forehead procedures through minimally invasive incisions.
• Reconstructive Breast Surgery: Providing the necessary reach and visibility for meticulous dissection in narrow surgical corridors.

Care and Maintenance Section

To maintain the integrity of these surgical forceps, they should be cleaned using soft brushes and pH-neutral detergents. It is vital to ensure that the offset bayonet hinge and the Tungsten Carbide tips are thoroughly rinsed of biological debris before autoclaving. These instruments are fully reusable and designed to withstand standard hospital sterilization protocols. Adas Instruments proudly ships USA, Europe & worldwide, ensuring your surgical team is equipped with elite-tier engineering.

People Also Ask (Google Verified)

What is the benefit of a bayonet-style handle?
The offset bayonet design allows the surgeon to see past their hand and the handle, providing a clear view of the tips in deep or narrow surgical sites, making them superior to standard dissecting forceps for visibility.

Are these Cushing forceps suitable for neurosurgery?
Yes, they are a standard choice for neurosurgical procedures due to their fine tips and visibility-enhancing design, often referred to as specialized neuro forceps.

How do Tungsten Carbide tips compare to standard steel?
TC tips are significantly harder and more durable, maintaining their gripping serrations much longer than standard stainless steel, which can dull over time.
