Ligation clip, metallic

1,234 devices · GMDN 35649

Metallic ligation clips are small, permanent clamps used in surgery to seal off blood vessels, lymphatic vessels, or other tubular structures. They are typically applied during procedures like vascular surgeries, laparoscopic cholecystectomies, or other minimally invasive operations to ensure secure occlusion without sutures.

These devices are generally classified as surgical instruments and may require regulatory approval depending on the jurisdiction. They are often supplied as part of a reusable clip applier system, though some may include disposable applicators for single-use applications.
