Alfred Washington Adson was a neurosurgeon at the Mayo Clinic in the early twentieth century who lent his name to the small, fine tissue forceps used today in plastic, dermatologic, and minor surgical procedures. The defining features are the slim 12 cm length and the small triangular handle area that lets the surgeon hold the forceps in a pen-grip. Two principal variants exist: Adson-Brown (multi-tooth grasping forceps for skin closure) and Adson-Dressing (smooth-tip for atraumatic handling). The Brown variant is the workhorse of plastic-surgery skin handling and remains the most widely used pattern for fine tissue grip. The Adson-Beckman variant adds a self-retaining frame for skin retraction during minor procedures.
