Features
Benefits of the LigaSure™ retractable L-hook laparoscopic device
Surgeons who tested the instrument say the actions to grasp, seal, cut, deploy, and retract the Valleylab™ monopolar L-hook are simple and intuitive.1
Simply press a lever on the handle to deploy the L-hook — and deliver the precision of Valleylab™ monopolar dissection. When you’re ready to switch back to the Maryland jaws, just press the lever to retract the L-hook.3
The speed of one-step vessel sealing
The Maryland-style jaws of the LigaSure™ retractable L-hook instrument:
- Deliver improved access to targeted tissues compared to straight jaw devices — even in tight spaces#,2
- Provide the ability to follow the curvature of the uterus/stomach†,2
- Allow for easy skeletonization of vessels†,2
And you get the speed and reliable performance of LigaSure™ vessel sealing technology.
Precise dissection at your fingertips
The LigaSure™ retractable L-hook instrument:
- Provides precise, versatile, and effective energy dissection†,2
- Provides the ability to create an otomy (gastrotomy and enterotomy)3
And the L-hook is there when you need it, and out of the way when you don’t.
We’re redefining versatility so you can keep your focus on the surgical site and protect patients from the risks of multiple instrument exchanges.4
