Adson Forceps - Serrated
Constructed of surgical-grade German stainless steel, our Adson Forceps - Serrated are designed for precise tissue handling, grasping, and manipulation in surgical and clinical settings. These forceps feature serrated tips that provide a secure grip without excessive tissue damage, making them a staple instrument for surgeons, clinicians, and dentists performing delicate procedures.
Named after Dr. Alfred Washington Adson, a pioneering neurosurgeon, these forceps were originally developed to enhance precision in microsurgical procedures. Today, they are widely used in plastic surgery, general surgery, and dental applications due to their ergonomic design and reliable control. They are also known as Adson Tissue Forceps.
