Halsted-Mosquito Hemostatic Forceps — 180 mm (18 cm) (Ref HF 04-205-01)

Refined in the 1890s at Johns Hopkins by William Stewart Halsted, the Halsted-Mosquito pattern is the standard fine hemostatic forceps for small-vessel clamping. The narrow tip handles bleeders too fine for Crile or Kelly patterns without crushing surrounding tissue — a hallmark of Halsted’s meticulous-hemostasis surgical tradition. Today the 12.5 cm and 14 cm lengths cover general surgery, plastic and reconstructive work, paediatric procedures, microsurgery prep, and dental extractions. The fully-serrated jaws and 3-step ratchet lock provide graduated clamping pressure; 1×2 toothed variants extend the pattern’s use to ligature placement around vascular pedicles.

The Halsted-Mosquito Hemostatic Forceps — 180 mm (18 cm) (Ref HF 04-205-01) is part of the Fizza Surgical instrument catalogue, manufactured under ISO 13485:2016.

Sialkot has been the world’s primary cluster for surgical-instrument manufacturing since the late nineteenth century, when local steel workshops began supplying instruments to British military and civilian hospitals. Fizza Surgical’s facility continues that tradition, combining workshop craftsmanship with the metallurgy and quality systems modern medical regulation requires. Fizza products are exhibited at international medical-device trade fairs in Europe, the Middle East, and North America.
