Vascular anastomosis clamp

A vascular anastomosis clamp is a surgical instrument used to temporarily close blood vessels during the creation of a connection between two arteries or veins. By compressing the vessels, it provides a blood‑free field that allows surgeons to perform the anastomosis safely and control bleeding.

These clamps are reusable devices typically made of high‑grade stainless steel and may include carbide inserts; they come in various sizes and blade designs to suit different procedures. As medical devices, they are regulated under the applicable medical device directives and must meet quality and safety standards before being supplied, often as sterile or re‑processable instruments.
