Russian Tissue Forceps
Distinctive "star-burst" or "saucer" tip — flat, circular, with multiple small teeth on the working face. Spreads grasping force broadly.
Design
- Flat circular tip with multiple fine teeth around the working face
- Heavier shaft than Adson, lighter than Bonney
- Distributed grip — less focal crush than traditional toothed forceps
Key Uses
- Handling thick, mobile tissue (muscle, fascia) without slipping
- Fascia retrieval during pubovaginal sling harvest
- Flap handling during perineal reconstruction
- General tissue manipulation where large purchase is needed
