Lahey Goiter Grasping Forceps – Apex-Hold Tissue Anchor & Safe-Guard Oropharyngeal Shield

Solid-Phase Lahey Goiter Grasping Forceps for High-Traction ENT Procedures

The Lahey Goiter Grasping Forceps is a cornerstone of the professional otolaryngology and endocrine surgical toolkit, specifically engineered for the stable displacement of slippery or heavy tissue masses. Functioning as a high-performance tissue anchor, this instrument features a unique 3×3 or 2×2 sharp-toothed jaw configuration that interlocks to provide maximum fixation without crushing the specimen. Adas Instruments ensures that each oropharyngeal shield accessory is balanced for center-point force transmission, giving the surgeon the mechanical advantage needed to elevate the tonsillar superior pole or thyroid istmus. By utilizing the Lahey Goiter Grasping Forceps, practitioners benefit from a box-joint construction that maintains jaw alignment even under significant lateral tension. We ship USA, Europe & worldwide via DHL, FedEx, and UPS to deliver German steel instruments that professionals trust for their grip-strength integrity and structural resilience.
