A wire/ligature passer is a reusable surgical tool used to guide flexible materials—such as wires, sutures, or orthopedic grafts—through tissue during procedures. It creates a controlled pathway, reducing trauma and improving precision when securing implants or reconstructing anatomical structures.
These devices are typically classified as surgical instruments and may require compliance with general medical device regulations, including sterility validation for reuse. They are often supplied as part of orthopedic or trauma surgical sets, with specific design features to ensure safe handling and tissue protection.
