GAAB Bipolar Forceps for use in Neuroendoscopy
KARL STORZ has an extensive portfolio of bipolar instruments on offer to meet today’s
requirements on bipolar coagulation systems. The range has now been extended with
a further pair of bipolar TAKE-APART® forceps.
These bipolar forceps have been specially developed for use in neuroendoscopy and
can be introduced through the working channel of the GAAB neuroendoscope.
Bipolar coagulation is generally preferred in neurosurgery because the circuit is
closed, which avoids neighboring structures’ being damaged accidentally. In contrast
to a bipolar electrode, bipolar forceps can be used to grasp a tissue bridge, hold
it in place and thereby coagulate it particularly effectively while applying additional
pressure to the hemorrhaging. This contributes just as importantly to the hemostasis
as the coagulation itself. In addition, the tissue filaments can be dissected without
hemorrhaging; the application of cutting diathermy is also possible. These forceps are
thus an important complement to the bipolar coagulation electrode and monopolar
diathermy.
The TAKE-APART® bipolar forceps can be completely dismantled and are thus very
easy to clean. The handle and the sheath are reusable and autoclavable. The inserts
for these forceps are disposable products and are supplied in packs of 5.
