Neurosurgical forceps are medical instruments that are used to grasp and hold tissues or organs during operations on the brain or other parts of the body. They are an integral part of neurosurgeons' equipment and are necessary for various operations. In this article we will look at two types of tweezers used in neurosurgery.
Neurosurgical fenestrated tweezers are designed for grasping and holding brain tumors. It has the shape of two parallel rods, between which there is a spongy part that allows you to grab and hold tissue. This type of forceps is used to perform surgeries to remove brain tumors such as gliomas, meningiomas, and other types of tumors.
Another type of forceps is a vessel grasping forceps. It is used for electrocoagulation of small vessels that may be damaged during operations. This type of tweezers allows you to control the depth of coagulation and avoid damage to surrounding tissue.
Overall, tweezers are an important tool for neurosurgeons to perform precise and safe operations on the brain and other parts of the body.
