Laparoscopic Bipolar Sealer Cutter

Product Description

A laparoscopic bipolar sealer-cutter is a surgical instrument used in minimally invasive (laparoscopic) surgeries to both seal and cut tissue or blood vessels. It combines two critical functions into one tool, offering efficiency and precision during surgery. Hereïs what it's used for:

Primary Uses:

1. Vessel Sealing:
   • It uses bipolar energy to seal blood vessels or tissue, preventing bleeding during surgery.
   • Ideal for vessels up to 7mm in diameter or smaller, it safely coagulates and seals the vessels, reducing the risk of bleeding.
2. Tissue Cutting:
   • The sealer-cutter also has a cutting mechanism to simultaneously cut tissues while sealing the blood vessels. This eliminates the need to switch instruments during the procedure, saving time and reducing the number of incisions.

Common Applications:

• General Surgery: For procedures such as appendectomy, cholecystectomy (gallbladder removal), or hernia repairs.
• Gynecology: Used in surgeries like hysterectomy or ovarian cyst removal.
• Urology: In surgeries like prostatectomy or nephrectomy (kidney removal).
• Oncology: In cancer surgeries to remove tumors while controlling blood flow.

Advantages:

• Minimizes blood loss during surgery.
• Reduces the need for additional tools or manual suturing.
• Enhances precision and efficiency in laparoscopic procedures.

By combining tissue cutting and vessel sealing in a single device, the laparoscopic bipolar sealer-cutter helps surgeons perform surgeries more safely, efficiently, and with fewer complications.
