Specifications

What Are Duval Tissue Forceps Used For?

Duval forceps are made for organs that tear or bruise easily. The triangular, open grippers wrap around a fold of lung or bowel instead of pinching it at one point, and the ridges hold without teeth. Surgeons use them to lift and steady lung tissue during chest operations and to hold loops of intestine during bowel work.

Use the soft ratchet only on its first steps and let the springy arms do the holding; this pattern is not intended for tough fascia or skin, where toothed forceps such as the Allis are more appropriate. Surgical skills labs that buy from educational laboratory suppliers often include one Duval alongside a Babcock so trainees can compare atraumatic grips.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are Duval Tissue Forceps used for?
Duval Tissue Forceps are used to grip soft and delicate tissues such as the lungs and intestines. Their triangular, ridged grippers hold a fold of tissue gently, which is why they are a standard pattern in chest and bowel surgery.

Are Duval Tissue Forceps traumatic to tissue?
Duval Tissue Forceps have gripper ridges that are pronounced but non-traumatic, and the grippers have a triangular aperture instead of teeth. Correct use still matters: close the soft ratchet only as far as needed to hold the tissue.

What size are the Duval Tissue Forceps?
The Duval Tissue Forceps are 23 cm long with a jaw of approximately 27 mm. The long shaft reaches into the chest or abdomen, and the broad triangular jaw spreads the grip over a wider area.

What kind of ratchet do Duval Tissue Forceps have?
Duval Tissue Forceps have a soft, lockable ratchet combined with springy, flexible arms. The soft ratchet lets the forceps stay closed on delicate tissue with a lighter holding force than a hard ratchet.

What steel are Duval Tissue Forceps made of?
Duval Tissue Forceps are made of quenched martensitic steel, which is magnetic, with 0.20% carbon and 13% chromium. This is the listed material for these gripping forceps; ask us if you need any further material information.
