Allis Tissue Forceps ( UK )

Various sizes and shapes of tissue forceps have been developed to enable handling of tissues during surgery. These are generally traumatic instruments and should never be applied to the skin or organs that are meant to remain functional. Allis tissue forceps have a varying number of teeth on their gripping surface and are available in various sizes. These forceps are extremely traumatic and should only be applied to fascial planes or connective tissue (if applied to any tissues at all).
