[Optic attachment to a microsurgical forceps].
Abstract
The authors suggest an original optic attachment to a microsurgical forceps which removes the shortcomings of the traditional optic apparatuses used in microsurgery. The attachment allows the lens to be brought directly to the operative zone and combines the functions of two instruments--forceps and magnifying glass. Such a combination expands considerably the possibilities of the operator and creates optimal conditions for precision manipulations. The optic attachment is used in reconstructive and restorative operations on the bile ducts and in operations on the large intestine at the stage of precision suture application.
