Aneurysm clip applier
A precision forceps-like instrument built to engage a specific aneurysm clip design (e.g., Yasargil or Sugita), open it, and close it in a controlled way across the aneurysm neck without blocking the surgeon's view.
How it is used
Used in microsurgical clipping of cerebral aneurysms to place, reposition and, if needed, remove the permanent clip occluding the aneurysm neck.
