Debakey forceps

Debakey forceps

Debakey forceps are a type of atraumatic tissue forcep used in vascular procedures to avoid tissue damage during manipulation. They are typically large (some examples are upwards of 12 inches (36cm) long), and have a distinct coarsely ribbed grip panel, as opposed to the finer ribbing on most other tissue forceps. [1]
