Castroviejo tying forceps 4 1/4" straight shafts 5.5mm tying platforms wide flat handle

Controlled Tying Access for General and Ophthalmic Workflows

Castroviejo tying forceps are designed to grasp and manage suture during precise tying tasks, giving clinicians a focused instrument for controlled handling in general surgery and ophthalmic applications. This model combines 4 1/4-inch straight shafts with 5.5mm tying platforms and a wide, flat handle to support a familiar, stable grip during repetitive manipulation. The straight profile offers a direct approach to the working field, while the defined tying platforms help organize suture handling at the instrument tip. Its compact format suits workflows where access, visibility, and deliberate control are important without adding unnecessary instrument bulk.

Use Cases

• Grasp and position suture during tying tasks in general surgical workflows.
• Support controlled suture manipulation in ophthalmic procedures where a compact, direct instrument profile is useful.
• Use the straight shafts to approach the working area along a direct line of access.
• Use the 5.5mm tying platforms for focused handling of suture at the instrument tip.
• Maintain a stable hand position with the wide, flat handle during repeated tying and adjustment.
