Wire ligature

Wire ligatures are sterile, thin metal cords designed to be tightly tied around blood vessels, tumor pedicles, or other anatomical structures to constrict them. These devices are commonly used in surgical procedures to control bleeding or isolate specific tissues during operations.

Wire ligatures are classified as single-use devices and must be sterile for each application. They are typically supplied in various gauges to accommodate different clinical needs, and their use is restricted to trained medical professionals who understand proper application techniques.
