ABSTRACT:
A forceps for isolation of a part of a blood vessel during anastomosis comprises hinged levers and an automatic lock to hold the levers in the closed position. There are rings at one end of each lever, by which the forceps is held. The other ends of the levers bear jaws arranged at an angle toward the levers. One jaw has a longitudinal groove open on the side facing the opposite jaw, while the other jaw is made in the form of a ridge whose width is the same as that of the groove so that the ridge enters the groove as the jaws are pulled together. Each jaw has a removable part that does not extend to the jaw ends.
This invention can advantageously be used to divide a part of a vessel into two parts along its longitudinal axis during anastomosis with mechanical suturing or ligation.
