The Halstead-Mosquito is the fine hemostat of the general tray. Its slender, finely serrated jaws clamp small bleeding vessels precisely with minimal tissue damage, and its light construction makes it a natural choice in plastic, paediatric and superficial surgery.

Design features

• Slender jaws with fine transverse serrations along their full length
• Three-position ratchet
• Box joint for precise jaw alignment
• Light, compact pattern for delicate work
• Curved version for improved access and visibility

Typical applications

• Clamping small vessels in general and plastic surgery
• Paediatric and superficial procedures
• Holding fine sutures and tissue

Care

Process with the ratchet open. Avoid clamping heavy tissue, which can spring the fine jaws.
