Laparoscopic Surgical Instruments
Snowden-Pencer™ and V. Mueller™ laparoscopic surgical instrumentation help surgeons safely and effectively perform procedures to improve patient lives. Laparoscopic surgeries tend to decrease postoperative pain and promote quicker recovery time*. We offer 3-mm trocars for microscopic procedures, resulting in better cosmesis and patient post-surgery comfort**. Our industry-leading portfolio gives you over 300 configurations, from laparoscopes to laparoscopic scissors, to confidently accomplish nearly any surgical task. Snowden-Pencer laparoscopic instruments feature an easy-to-use integrated ratchet mechanism that allows the surgeon to use the same instrument with or without a ratchet.
Snowden- Pencer Laparoscopic Instrumentation
- Laparoscopic instrumentation offers a wide variety of jaw patterns, including clamps, needle holders, graspers, and dissectors
- 3-mm laparoscopic instruments offer jaw features closely scaled to standard laparoscopic instrument size and provide maximum tissue purchase while minimizing skin tissue trauma and abdominal wall damage
- The Snowden-Pencer Ergonomic Ring Handle distributes pressure more evenly, which may help reduce the potential for intraoperative hand fatigue and temporary digital nerve compression
- Explore Snowden-Pencer laparoscopes, modular systems, ergonomic and traditional in-line and pistol single-piece laparoscopic instrumentation, ring-handled single-piece laparoscopic instrumentation, reposable/disposable laparoscopic scissors, microlaparoscopy instruments, articulating instruments, retractors, side-lock instrumentation, and stainless single-piece instrumentation
V. Mueller Laparoscopic Instrumentation
- V. Mueller Laparoscopic modular system provides standardized assembly and disassembly, allowing for straightforward inspection during cleaning to help support sterility initiatives
- The two-piece 3-mm micro laparoscopic portfolio uses the same ergonomic handles as our three-piece 5-mm and 10-mm instruments, providing a versatile portfolio of modular laparoscopic instruments
- Surgical retractors provide better access to the surgical site, creating optimal conditions for surgeons
- Choose from various single-piece and slide-lock instrumentation, such as surgical clamps, dissectors, graspers, needle holders, scissors, handle selections, and biopsy punches
