Yasargil bipolar forceps
Insulated, bayonet-shaped forceps with a non-stick tip that delivers bipolar current between its two tips for focal coagulation without current spread to surrounding tissue.
How it is used
Continuous hemostasis during microsurgical dissection of cranial or spinal tissue and vessels; the bayonet shape keeps the surgeon's hand out of the microscope's line of sight.
