• General Forceps and Clamps
• Gastrointestinal Forceps and Clamps
• The KLINTMALM™ Liver Transplant Clamp is designed to securely occlude the suprahepatic inferior vena cava of the recipient during anastomosis of the donor liver.
• • Unique "teething" design of a single row against a double row of teeth helps prevent slippage and scissoring of the jaw.
• • An even-parallel closure of the jaw helps prevent blood seepage and helps minimize the risk of the vena cava slipping from the clamp.
• • Jaw curvature is designed to meet the anatomical requirements of the upper abdomen and to reduce trauma to the liver.
• A standard vascular clamp on the cuff of the vena cava and diaphragm may not always properly close due to the amount of tissue in the clamp. The use of a standard vascular clamp may result in clamp insecurity and slippage leading to the possible retraction of the vena cava into the diaphragm, and visual obstruction caused by pooling blood.
