The 7 1/2" Negus Tonsil Artery Forceps, Wide is a surgical instrument designed for use during tonsillectomy procedures or other surgeries involving the tonsils. These forceps are specifically intended for controlling and clamping the tonsil arteries or other blood vessels in the tonsillar region. The wide tips provide a larger surface area for gripping, which is especially helpful in securing larger vessels during surgery.
