Veterinary Needle Holders

Veterinary Needle Holders are used to hold suture needles while suturing the tissues. The jaws of the holder grasp the needle as they undergo metal-to-metal contact. They are a basic and important part of any surgery or medical procedure. There are many veterinary needle holders, such as Mayo Hagar Needle Holders, Mathieu Needle Holders as well as Collier, Derf, Castroviejo, Gillies, Saort, and Debakey Needle Holders. Each of them is designed for a specific surgical procedure. They feature a finger-ring handle mechanism that provides ideal grip and control during surgeries. These instruments have variations that feature a locking mechanism that perfectly secures the needle by keeping the jaws in an enclosed position. Needle Holders are available with serrations on their jaws that provide a solid grip during surgeries. They are available in standard pattern or heavy pattern and can be used according to the surgical needs. The smooth jaws’ variation is used for delicate suture needles. Different sizes, types, and patterns of these instruments are available to assist in various veterinary surgical procedures.
