Rabbit Surgical Kit
Fine, precise instruments are required to facilitate gentle
tissue handling, minimise trauma and to reduce the
development of adhesions which occur readily in rabbits.
The Rabbit Surgical Kit contains a range of instruments
selected with this in mind.
Both Halstead and Crile Artery Forceps are included as
these are fine and accurate in use, ideal for clamping the
ovarian ligaments and associated blood vessels during
ovariohysterectomy.
Adson Dissecting and Martin Splinter Forceps are
ergonomically designed for comfortable handling and to
hold thin muscle and skin.
Atraumatic Debakey Dissecting Forceps are designed
specifically for delicate tissue handling as indicated when
exteriorising fragile abdominal organs.
Olsen-Hegar Scissors/Needle Holders are included for their
positive and secure handling of the 3/0 and 4/0 fine suture
materials required in rabbit surgery.
