Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q: What is a Lahey Tenaculum Forceps used for?
A: The Lahey Tenaculum Forceps are used to lift and secure hard, fibrous tissue like thyroid tissue in a thyroidectomy, or the uterus in abdominal surgery. They are able to offer the extreme grip and traction required to move heavy items and keep them securely in place.
Q: What is the length of Grey Medical’s Lahey Tenaculum Forceps?
A: Grey Medical’s Lahey Tenaculum Forceps are 6 inches (15cm). They have 3×3 interlocking sharp teeth (prongs) and a ratchet locking mechanism which ensures that the instrument will grip slippery or dense tissue under tension.
Q: How does a Tenaculum Forceps differ from other retractors?
A: Lahey Forceps are much more aggressive than Allis Forceps. Allis have several fine teeth to work on general fascia while the Lahey has three sharp heavy-duty prongs which interlock deep into the fascia. This is a good advantage for using the Lahey when a powerful forceps such as the Allis is apt to slip in the handling of large bulky glands as the thyroid.
